I have ordered a Ubiquiti EdgeRouter X-SFP and long-range, 802.11ac, PoE, access point. Since the EdgeRouter is WRT compatible, I can install that and get DNS running there too, which means that I can power off the old Linux gateway machine. I could have continued using my existing router as an access point, but the new one is longer range, higher speed, and easier to wire.
I looked at the Amplifi and it looks quite nice, comparatively priced with the option I went with, and very plug-and-play (with iOS/Android controls), but running WRT and DNS on the router was too good an option for me to pass up.
Thanks for all of your advice.

Is there an openwrt non-wifi, PoE router? Also the WRT1900ACv2 seems to

Looks like the ERX you were looking at is compatible, TIL!

I might try flashing mine sometime.
