That's one possibility. Any router compatible with OpenWRT would do an
acceptable job.
Another possibility may be more interesting :

These ones are cheap (around 70 $ iirc), very low-consumption (around
5W), can use PoE, and you can put a lot of systems on it. From Debian
to FreeBSD, OpenBSD... And it is quite powerful, so easy to use for
something else (I use some as backup servers, with a USB disk, for very
cheap systems).
