> I am looking for a FOSS-friendly Wireless Access Point (WAP) for my SOHO network, to support FreeBSD, Linux, Android, Windows, OS X, iOS, etc., Wi-Fi devices.  I'd like something with an external power adapter (wall wart), dual-band, 802.11 b/g/n/ac, Gigabit Ethernet port, built-in antennas, wall mount, good factory firmware (I will use this as an AP only; DD-WRT bricked my last router), and that can handle warm temperatures (say, 100 F).


Anything Ubiquiti makes is excellent - the Lite model would be the most affordable:

It supports all the features you mentioned, assuming that PoE (adapter included) is OK. You can pick one up for $80-90 on Amazon.
