I have 2 computer in home,one with windows 7 and the other with ubuntu. I have an access point too.

I make dns tunnel from my ubunut system to my vps, and make it gateway,so in my wireless connection properties in windows 7 enter my ubuntu computer ip as gateway and access point ip as dns server.

it works correctly,but I wanna manage the internet access of windows 7 computer,perm to which websites can't be seen and bandwidth usage controlling.

How should I do it?

You could probably re-ask this question on superuser, but I strongly suggest you take some time to actually compose a good question. Right now it is difficult to follow what you are asking. – Zoredache May 18 '12 at 18:29

You will need to set up a proxy server, your best bet is installing something like Squid on your Ubuntu server and making sure that any computer on your network has the proxy settings set to the IP of the Ubuntu server.

You can also manage access to certain websites with ACL lists or block certain websites.

Having said all this, this question is not right for ServerFault as it is a home network, it belongs on SuperUser.
