I'm not quite sure why you tagged this on to the end of a thread about 
htb classes?  As a result many people may not even read your question...? 

I have one of those EN5861 router things, and actually I find it pretty 
good.  The biggest issue is that it's a bit of a timebomb, the 
powersupply dies after a few years, and unless you have a spare it's a 
bit of a weak link

Do you need to do some particularly advanced routing that's stopping you 
just using the en5861?

Good luck
