I have my AP’s setup and all I need now is sine sort of firewall appliance. I am hopping to make it run openwrt as that’s what I’m used to using. I’m looking at a nanopi but they seem expensive and overpowered to me. Is there a cheap alternative?

Edit: I just went to Walmart and bought a libksys router. It can do gigibit speeds and works fine

    I love my Pfsense Netgate appliance. May be overkill for your use case, but I split up my home vlans across different networks. You can then use on-device dns blocking for ads (like a piHole).

    The NanoPi R2S costs 25$ and does what you need. If you require more power maybe a Banana Pi R2 or Banana Pi R3 Mini?
