My dream is of Open source 802.11ac Wi-Fi router. Is there any open hardware that works well?
I tend to separate the router and access points. Well working wifi hardware has traditionally been hard to find on consumer pricepoints, so I've used Ubiquiti thoughout. They're not open source at all, but neither are most network cards and wifi adapters so I consider them appliances. That way the router can be simple and separate.
I prefer to run wire up wireless APs though.
There are plenty of options for OpenWRT.
Running OpenBSD may better fit your description of "dream".
