I have a Ubiquiti AP along with some Google wifi (pre nest) hubs running OpenWRT all with 2.4 / 5.

And honestly I see no reason to update in the coming years, unless there are some major vulnerabilities around these devices.

I don't need the fastest wireless speeds or latency, if I need either I'll sit at my desktop or have a server handle the downloads via Ethernet.
