You should checkout EspressoBin, which should be more suitable for this task. Hardware-Switch, WAN-Port and so on

It has horrible reviews (booting by itself etc.). Any better alternative?

I've had decent luck with this: https://mikrotik.com/product/RBwAPR-2nD

+1 for Microtik. They have their weird problems but are cheap and generally fairly reliable for what you get. Have a bunch of their hardware around, all served me pretty well.

Welcome to the wonderful world of ARM SBCs.

Those reviews may be for the earlier versions of the Espressobin.

I had good luck with the Turris Omnia which is based on the same platform.

There's also the Turris Mox coming out soon.
