Network Firewall – Can Someone Suggest a Solution

Hello Guys,

I am looking for a network firewall to control access and optimize internet use in my office. I have been through several website/products on the internet but extremely confused on which one to buy and why? I need following features in the firewall :

  1. Should Block website both http & https or any other option like https://www.naukri.com or https://login.naukri.com etc
  2. Should Block people from downloading heavy data of their system.
  3. Should give me log on who visit which website etc.
  4. I should be able to assign IP specific rights.
  5. Optimize my internet bandwidth.
  6. Block unsolicited emails.
  7. Anything else that I can do?

I currently have 6 to 7 computers, 1 Netgear Wifi Router, 1 Netgear 24 port unmanaged switch. Please help, need urgent help with min budget.

I am currently controlling access through Netgear router in-build firewall, but it is not working efficiently, since it bypasses the rule if someone is trying to view the website on a SSL socket and if block SSL socket, it block all website, include Google search.
