Experience With Cutler Hammer (Eaton) CH Series Panels
I own Eaton (stock) and so I recommend it. I replaced the FPE that was used in my neighborhood with Westinghouse long ago. Many neighbors still have FPE.  Surprised there aren't fires in my neighborhood. Jerry  
Amp upgrade, speaker cables or both
Your current cables are much better than your current amp.   You should also consider upgrading your pre.   Second point: cables aren’t a component. they are a secondary effect. Junk cables degrade sound. Once you have good cables, there is very... 
What is going on here? Streamer or DAC?

I want to replace the router/modem Comcast with a high quality for streaming
Thanks for the coaching @fastfreight .  You're quite a role model.   
One receiver for both ht and 2 channel (diff speakers)
I think you can, just put your 2 channel system on zone 2.  But you'll be better off to have a better amp for your 2 channel system.   Not sure why you want to use different speakers for your HT system.  Your 2 channel system will likely have bet... 
I want to replace the router/modem Comcast with a high quality for streaming
OK.  I just pulled the trigger on a Netgear Nighthawk.  Docsis 3.1 and 2 gigabyte internet ports.  I see some modems that can handle higher speeds up to 2.5GB but in my neighborhood service seems to max at 350MB/sec.  The tech mentioned that they ...
