Similarly, I recently retired an old 802.11g Netgear router running DDWRT that had become flaky (presumably a hardware fault).
Replaced it with a
Ubiquiti Unifi UAP AC Pro, as the #a&a crowd seem to rate the Unifi stuff highly for its doing what it says on the tin factor (there seem to be a lot of people running point-to-point links with it). I also wanted 802.3af support (I've got enough 48V passive
[1] PoE kit that it seems pointless having an extra wall-wart), and the simultaneous dual-band because this is a student area and the 2.4GHz band is a mess.
Feature list broadly similar to the above. Notably absent is any form of IPv6 support (being a Layer 2 device, it'll happily pass IPv6 packets anyway
[2]), but that's surely coming in a software update at some point.
The Unifi management is via a centralised server, which will run on all the popular OSes (or you can pay them for some cloudy thing, I think). Installing it on Debian Jessie was just a matter of adding the repository and installing via apt-get. This is somewhat overkill for a single access point, admittedly, but it works well enough. Looks like a neat integrated solution if you've got multiple pieces of Unifi hardware (it allows you to manage switches etc via the same interface).
Wireless performance seems okay. One strategically positioned AP covers the whole house, so no need for a second one. We're mostly using it for phones/tablets, so aren't really taxing it at present.
[1] My deaf alerting system actually has proper 802.3af support, as do the Snoms for that matter, but I'm using fanless Procurves and passive multi-port injectors rather than proper PoE switches, because I'm cheap and fans are evil. You can generally stick 48V up something that speaks 802.3af and it'll just get on with it.
[2] Unless you enable the AP's "guest mode", which seems to break it. I didn't need that feature anyway.
