For ac, 500+ Mbps is primarily feasible only at 5 GHz around 2 m / 5 ft away. WRT3200ACM

If you care about performance rather than open source purity tests, Asus RT-AX88U is the way to go.

Thanks. I should have made this more explicit, but I care less about the WLAN performance (as long as it's ok) - I care more about the wired one.

Most OpenWRT ports don't offload the LAN/WAN routing, and doing it on a lowly ARM CPU often effectively limits this to a few hundred megabits - e.g. 150mbps on my WDR4300 (which does manage 800Mbps for the same task with the original closed firmware which does do some hardware offloading)
