My Netgear Nighthawk wifi router just crapped out last weekend and I’m gimping along on the rental wifi router from my ISP, so I’m looking to buy a replacement and am torn: should I go with a single WiFi Router or a wired router plus a wireless access point?

I don’t need crazy throughput, just enough to handle some lite home automation, streaming, and a future NAS. My house isn’t large, so wifi coverage with a single device hasn’t been a problem so far. I’m also interested in flashing OpenWRT or DD-WRT to the router, so compatibility is a consideration. Hardware recommendations would be great!
