Thans for all the comments and advise.
In my opinion. How do i take charge and manage a network in a simple and efficient way. At the moment our ISP is able to give us user based reports by IP and traffic since there is no proxy or firewall in place.
Torrents top the list, skype then http traffic. Objective is to block/limit torrents. commercial or open source any goes but the ideal is whatever works efficiently. From an ISP perspective, i am not sure if they are best to manage my network since altering or creating rules for different classes of traffic might not be so flexible.
I have used pfsense and smoothwall before. but creating the rules was not fun.
