I have a 20 Mbps internet service, but I need a switch in order to connect many devices via ethernet. It will be enough with a 10/100 switch to handle the 20 Mbps or I need a 100/1000?

Lets just say you would have to look very hard to find a switch that would not meet your needs. Most very inexpensive 10/100 switches can run all ports at 100m up and 100m down all at the same time. In most cases they use the same chip internally so most the difference is if the case is metal and if the power supply is internal or external. As long as with any of the more well known brands you will likely see similar results.
