Layer 7 net filtering may help [1]

Also, IMO the HW spec, that the OP has posted, is an overkill.

I am using ZeroShell  [2] in production (ALIX hardware).   It has
almost all the features that the OP has listed in his wish list +  L7
filter capabilities but I have not used it.  Wi-Fi support - it uses
MadWi-Fi.

In most cases, a Captive Portal is enough deterrent for people to curb
their "promiscuous" surfing habits :)

[1] http://l7-filter.clearfoundation.com/  - not sure if it is
incorporated into ClearOS.
