Default Router vs Lan?

Recently have just brought another computer (5 + 1laptop) and my lan (hub) has now filled up all 5 of its ports. I'm looking to invest in more laptops and computers in the comming future.

Not sure wether to stick with the lan and buy a 10 port or to move onto a 10 port router. I'm not sure about the difference in performance, only thing i know is router allows all computers to be online aslong as theres power in the router. With a lan once the host computer is down all the others are down to.

Help me out !
