Would recommend a Netgate SG-1100 as your wired router front-end. It's about $170. You can customize almost any setting since it's using PFSense as the firewall and BSD as the OS. Then, you can use your current wifi as an AP only, depending, of course, on your home layout. I use OpenWRT on my wifi AP and it works extremely well. Caveat - I only connect to AirVPN on my desktop. I don't run it through the sg-1100. I could if I wanted to, but given all the problems with locality, rather than create a bunch of client and software exceptions, I will just go online with my desktop, or connect to AirVPN using a mobile app if a need arises. I also use PFBlocker on the SG-1100 and it does a great job filtering all the network garbage and ads. Hope this helps!
