Recently I heard the state of the art is using for example the APU2
system by PC Engines, which is a fully Free Software compatible network
device. For WiFi, PC Engines also sells compatible antennas. You can
install a network firewall OS like IPFire or pfSense on it which should
provide all features you mentioned (and lots more!).
Never used it but heard a few good reports about it.
Best,
Max
