Can anyone recommend an alternative router that offers this for as cheap as possible. Thanks

AC1600 WiFi VDSL/ADSL2+Modem Router, Simultaneous Dual Band Gigbit
4 Gigabit Ethernet ports.
Hope this helps

@Swordfishtrombo Many people on here use a BT Home hub 6, its relatively cheap, available on your favourite on line auction site under £30. Just aim for the normal or business one, not the FTTP one.

Cheapest solution is to get a Gigabit switch.
Connect one port to the router (100Mbit is faster than your broadband connection). then connect the NAS and PC to the switch.

+1 for the switch solution.
I bought one of these a year or so ago when I needed some more free Ethernet ports.
