Check out the MikroTik range (via duxtel.com.au if you are in Oz). Very
good and very cheap. A little idiosyncratic to configure, but very
capable.

Any of these can do what you want, in order of price:

RB962UiGS-5HacT2HnT (5x10/100/1000)
RBD52G-5HacD2HnD    (5x10/100/1000)
RB952Ui-5ac2nD      (5x 10/100)
RBmAP2nD            (1x 10/100, 2.4GHz only)

Regards, K.
