I repurposed an old hp thin client for this. It's basically an x86 laptop thrown in a case with a single x8 pcie slot that I threw a dual 10gbe network card in (entirely because it was basically the same price used as a multiport 1gbe card and I already had a spare 10g port on my switch). It still cost more overall with adding an external AP to it but it's been roxk solid when I'm not trying to abuse it's emmc storage.
