Another +1 for OpenWrt. I have ~4 Google WiFi (Gale) APs running OpenWrt scattered around the house. They're USB-C powered and support hubs for extra I/O, they have 4GB of storage, and they're cheap on eBay/thrift stores (~$5-15). Would definitely recommend. The only difficulty is it's a little annoying to flash them with OpenWrt the first time. Requires taking them apart. -Ben
