I haven't used it but have been reading around various devices for the best part of a year and I really like the Banana Pi BPi-R4. It's not perfect, but it's a decent device. I would use it with a seperate AP though.
I just did this. I installed a banana pi r4 as my main router with no wifi, and a couple of separate APs. I bought some Extreme Networks APs on ebay for USD$15 each, already flashed with openwrt.
I used the YouTube tutorials by OneMarcFifty to set up vlans for alternate SSIDs. Works great!
Thank you so much. Honestly you don't know how much this post means to me. Thank you for confirming my plan works!
