3G traffic filtering

Hi,

I live in an area of poor broadband, but am considering purchasing a 3G dongle to boost connection speed.

Is it possible to configure the 7800DXL to:
  • Restrict the types of data going through the 3G connection (preferred)
  • Restrict 3G access to only one IP address on the network
  • Limit 3G usage in certain hours of the day (e.g. 9-5 only, broadband otherwise)
What I'm after is a way to make sure the data cap isn't used within days from phones, tablets, downloads, YouTube, iPlayer etc using it unnecessarily and keep it for general web browsing and smaller file downloads.

Any advice would be appreciated!
