I have an Asus RT-AC66U router and it's worked beautifully for me.
I am likely moving into a new home and this house I think I will need an AP or two to reach a couple far reaching spots in the home.
What would you recommend as a basic trouble-free 802.11 N/AC AP?

I would buy a router and use it as AP if I were you.
There are a couple of decent 802.11ac routers that could do the job but the budget would have to be known to suggest something more specific.WhatsThePoint and alexhawker like this. -
I may consider buying a nice new router to replace my Asus RT-AC66U and use it as an AP. -

Or, use this purpose built Asus Range Extender/AP/Bridge EA-N66, but it's not 802.11ac:

The dlink DAP-1650 with 802.11ac looks better, especially at 5ghz, for the same price:

either those business class AP or just use a router. Consumer performance AP cost as much as their router counterpart which make no sense.
