Router Solution For IoT AP

We have mulitple ESP8266 Microcontroller which need to connect via wireless to a Router/AP. The device must be able to run some services like Apache and/or NodeJS etc. Right now we are using a RPi 3 with hostapd, dnsmasq and Apache which runs just fine, but is limited in terms of range.

Now we are searching for a more profound solution but I am not sure in which direction to go: 1. OpenWRT: This would be great but I have no experience. Is it possible to have deeper access to the operating system like reading out IP leases? 2. Complete commerically available solution? 3. Custom build?
