For logging, I use:

Most Linksys routers will generate an SNMP trap every time a new IP
address is opened. It won't tell you everything about what people are
doing, but will give you a tolerable idea. However, it's not "GOOD"
as you probably want traffic details. For that, you'll probably need
to sniff the WAN connection with:

That's an ACL (access control list) which is a common feature of Cisco
routers. Instead of trying to do something complex, I suggest you
invest in a Cisco router, which will do everything you ask. For
wireless, I would use an access point instead of a router, or a router
wired as an access point.
Incidentally, our neighborhood wired and wireless LAN was run by an
old Cisco 2514 router, which is heavily monitored. The only reason I
replaced it with cheap junk was I didn't like the fan running all the
time.
