Routers might start showing up this year, but until routers and clients are readily available it'd be hard to take advantage of the increased bandwidth. Note the terms "theoretically" and "might".

Your connection to the Internet is still limited by your ISP's speed. Nobody has an ISP that supports 40Gbps.
