I haven't tested the specific products you're asking about, but

You imply that it's wired. Wired routers are very

I wouldn't say it was useless, although the lack of browse is a minor
inconvenience. If you can still download the older versions, they do
have browsing enabled in the freeware version - it was only recently
removed. If my memory of version numbers isn't too far out, I think
you want a pre 4.5

First thing worth checking is before you rescan make sure you have a
