Personally, a small Fortinet router (FortiWiFi-40C or FortiWiFi-60CM) may fit your client's bill. As I indicated in my original post these units can be set up to filter and monitor web traffic, which I think your client is more concerned about than anything else. Web filtering is category based (or even URL based), messages can be sent to the user if they try to access a web site that matches a banned category. Reports of those web page access can be emailed out. However, these fortiwifi units (I have mentioned) are UTM appliances geared towards small government/business for the long term; if your client simply wants to track web usage then a web proxy with log reporting may be more suited to your client's needs.

For the environment and conditions you are describing you may want to consider a UTM appliance, like those put out by Fortinet.

Fortinet has some nice small office wireless-type routers that can manage/filter/allow/block web traffic as well other kinds of internet traffic (e.g. IM/proxy/peer-to-peer). (Wireless traffic can be even filtered/blocked from accessing the internal network as well.) It has reporting capabilities that can viewed and email reports out or can even be dumped to a logging server for later analysis.

The up-front cost for a unit may be a bit steep (for a average home user) and there's a yearly subscription (after the first year). But these unit are pretty much âoeset up once and forget about itâ. (Though, you may need to get help setting it up the first time and tweaking the settings to get it running the way your client wants.)

I don't work for Fortinet, but do use their products at work and at home.
