Firewall / Router - QOS

[Blackbadger]

I'm looking for a router/firewall that can specify data transfer quota's per user.
I needs to be low power. Even a atom box will draw far to much electricity. It doesnt need to be particualy fast or powerfull.

I can only find systems that do bandwidth control per user, not total data transfer. limiting the speed for users isnt the problem, its the total amount of data transfer per user is the issue.

I have tried draytek vigor routers - good but cant do what I want.
I have purchased a pfsense system based ona pc engines alix board -, again good but still cant do quotas. (If another linux or other distro with the right features can run on this system it would be ideal)
I have looked into flashing consumer routers wirth wrt/tomatoe again it cant do this.

Any suggestions ?

Thanks for the responses guys.

mikrotik does look good, hwoever it doesnt offer these options "out of the box"
Scripting looks insane.. on the forum people need pages and pages of code for the most simple tasks.. I know that would be far out of my league.


Ok so pfsense and captive portal make sense. I have some test users set up, thats all good. This radius server thing, is that another piece of hardware needed or a service that needs to be sorted ?
