The FriendlyElec boards are the most suitable as they have two or more 
LAN interfaces.

Alternatives are possible if you use a USB3 to LAN adaptor, so OrangePi 
and Rock Pi are options. The Orange Pi 5 is getting a lot of interest, 
but spec wise the FriendlyElec NanoPi devices equal or out perform it 
plus have multiple LAN

If I was after just a router I'd look at the NanoPi R6C 
https://www.friendlyelec.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=69&product_id=291

or for a DMZ implementation with 3 LAN, NanoPi R6S 
https://www.friendlyelec.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=69&product_id=289 
- which breaks the $100 barrier

You can even go down a notch and look at the R5 and R4 series, but the 
price difference is not that great

If you want a full fledged PC with inbuilt PCIe NVME Drive and two LANS  
and plugabble wifi the NanoPC-T6 fits the bill. 
https://www.friendlyelec.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=69&product_id=292

(I have a T6 for development work, a M4V2 for a lan server, and an R4 
for router)
