That's what I have here. I have a Qotom mini PC, with i5 CPU, 4 GB RAM

managed 8 port Cisco switch. Works very well.
No router?
I just described it. A computer, running pfSense is my firewall/router
and it's far more capable than any consumer router you're likely to
buy. I have it configured with my main LAN, a VLAN for guest WiFi, test
LAN and a connection to my Cisco router. I also have a DNS resolver and
NTP server on it and that's just getting started on what it's capable
of. It can even do routing protocols, such as OSPF and BGP, which can
be used between large networks. In addition to a single IPv4 address,
which uses NAT for LAN, I have a /56 IPv6 prefix, which I can split into
256 /64s, each of which contain 2^64 addresses. I also have OpenVPN
running.
