Openwrt may be a better option. There is a package management system and it
is relatively easy to do custom builds if you want something outside of
the available packages or built differently.

If you run the router as an actual router rather than a bridge you should
be able to get a pretty good handle on this using traffic shapping. The
Linux Advanced Routing and Traffic Control documentation is a bit dated,
but should give you some ideas of what is possible and how to implement
policy. The doucmentation is at lartc.org.
