You can either keep your existing router (and turn off its internal wireless) or switch completely to a UniFi system and use something like a UniFi USG as your main router.
I've installed a bunch of these things and they're great. In fact, sitting at my front door right now is an entire new UniFi setup to replace my existing consumer grade router. I'm running the controller software on a cloud server so I can access it anywhere and add other sites/deployments to it if I want to.
I'm thrilled with mine. Fixed all my weird intermittent WiFi issues in this house when consumer grade routers configured as access-points had problems.
