I have done quite a bit of searching, but I could do with some advice on this.
I'm looking for a wireless router to use with my Virgin Media cable with the Superhub in modem mode.
The features I'm specifically looking for are: -
QoS with some good QoS control over certain machines, traffic types to prioritise
Firewall that allows IP restrictions on inbound rules, not just firewall for outbound (seems to be that most of them only do this)
Dual band 5Ghz, wireless AC
You would think this would be easy, but I'm struggling to find anything. Does anyone have any good suggestions?
I was looking at the ASUS AC66U, but it looks like it only does outbound firewall control with the only inbound features being "on", not the ability to restrict services on the LAN to access only from certain WAN ranges, which is a shame ...

I no longer use traditional QOS on my routers because, thanks to SQM-scripts and fq_codel, i no longer need it to keep everything humming along but the older QOS-scripts package allows you to combine fq_codel with prioritisation.
