I was hoping someone could recommend me a wifi router. I need one that's capable of creating a guest network where I can set bandwidth and access limits.
Ex. giving the guest network a total bandwidth limit of 2-3 MB/s and everyone on that network shares it. Also blocking the ability to torrent. I'll also need QOS to prioritize bandwidth on the networks. If it can do QOS automatically that would be great so I don't have to figure it out but it's not absolutely required. I don't need a ton of bells and whistles (I don't think I need dual-band) so I would like it to be affordable. Of course good wifi reception and reliability is a must. Also I heard Google Fiber is coming to my city (San Diego) so having a router that could take advantage of its speeds in the future would be nice but I'm sure a N900 router or whatever the top wireless speed is now would probably contradict the affordability option. So...as affordable as possible.
I have used and flashed dd-wrt, tomato, openwrt, gargoyle, firmware before so I have a fair bit of experience modding routers although I haven't done it in a long time. Last time I used dd-wrt the QOS feature was not functioning and also wasn't very intuitive (on tomato too) but I didn't need QOS back then so I didn't spend a lot time looking into it. I would prefer using the router's own software as I'd rather have convenience and ease of use but I'm not totally against using dd-wrt or tomato if their firmware has become more user-friendly. I definitely need the ability to create and configure guest networks though so if dd-wrt/tomato doesn't have that option then I don't want to use it.
Any recommendations?
