Wireless Router with Restriction Capability

Hi Guys, Am looking for a simple wireless router that i will be able to limit internet access by blocking › Some specific "ports" › Some specific "days" › Some specific "hours" › Block some specific "sites" and give Access only to (as an example); › SMTP › HTTPS › Certain IP address and certain sites › Certain application etc Any ideas what i should go for? Thanks!

Mikrotik is what comes to mind, though I wonder if that fits your definition of simple :) On Wed, May 12, 2010 at 11:56, david aliata <aliatadavid@gmail.com> wrote:

A cheap router like the Linksys WRT54GL would probably do - as long as it is compatible with DD-WRT. Voila - you got yourself a $500 router for $70. If simple equals cheap that is ;) http://www.dd-wrt.com/ Kiti Chigiri wrote:
