Wireless Hotspot Software

Hi Guys,

I am looking at setting up a little Wifi Hot Spot for a cafe. I want
it to be pretty simple, withsomething like a Linksys WRT54G for the
access point.

The stumbling point seems to be the software, whats some good access
control software, with something like little prepaid access cards
seems to be a good way to go?

Love to hear some opinions on this,

Cheers

Alas, it doesn't have bandwidth limiting...a feature that was promised to
be addressed almost a year ago.

Hi,

Switch to complete hardware hotspot solution like ZyXEL G-4100 which
comes with small thermal printer, bandwidth limitation, Zero
configuration systems and many other great features.
