A budget of $35 is certainly not going to get you wifi 6 with great speed.
The only devices I can say anything at all about are TP-Link routers and APs that have the hardware of the Archer C6 V2 in it: https://openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/archer_c6_v2
While they won't blow you out of the water they are decent enough for the price.
Found a refurbished one on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-C6-802-11AC-Ethernet-Wireless/dp/B08H75LG8S/
But the A6 V2 should be the same as the C6 V2 just rebranded for Amazon and should take the same firmware from what I can gather online: https://openwrt.org/toh/hwdata/tp-link/tp-link_archer_a6_v2_us_tw
