Here's an example: Bandwidth Management Configuration Guide for the RV082/RV016

Answer 2

Yes, it is possible but you don't mention what kind of router you have.

You can disable certain ports (as in for filesharing/P2P), limit the experience to webmail or general browsing.

You could also try a program called IPCop http://www.ipcop.org/
