Metal is a good conductor of heat, plastic is a good insulator and electronics don't like heat.

Plastic with holes would be better than metal without holes, only if there's decent airflow, and that's not always the case.

basically a router is for connecting devices to the internet while a switch is for connecting devices to one another. you can do the latter with your router, just less efficiently.
