  • Squid

    Squid Web Proxy Cache

  • Just get pfSense or its competitor opnsense, it would serve you well as very flexible firewall/gateway, as well you can install well known squid proxy as addon that can be a proxy with authorization, as well transparent proxy/cache + you can add pfBlocker that will add additional protection, + possibility to use VLAN to separate WiFi between LAN/guest and easily add captive portal if needed + IDS/IPS (either via snort or suricata) + many, many more via intuitively easy understandable web interface (as far as you know networking). Any old computer would be more that enough to serve 25 people even on a couple of gigabit WAN channels
