Hi Al Dykes,

I have an other approach to your case if you haven't already bought
any stuff and you want start from scratch.

If you want to build your own hotspot and start selling Internet
service, you can use ZyXEL G-4100 HotSpot, it's all in one, solution
which includes the following:


1. 802.11g wireless Access Point.
2. ADSL Router.
3. 4 port Ethernet switch.
4. Small Thermal printer.
5. Zero Configuration System ( Amazing, It can allow any kind of
guestes IP addresses to get into the Internet without the need to
modify any thing at the guest's NB or PC)
6. Internal Billing System ( AAA service ) which can be programed to
accepts credit cards as well as selling pre-paid internet time.


list price is less than $1000..


For more details about G-4100 hotspot please do visit :
