I am climbing a learning curve at the moment, and intend to provide this sort of functionality.
I am looking at setting up a regional wireless ISP. I am planning on allowing everyone to associate with the wireless APs. When they open up a web browser and try to hit a page, I am going to use squid to redirect them to this "walled garden" page that provides limited free content and instructions on how to subscribe to our services. Paid subscribers will then be able to login and access the internet. I think there may be a few ways to achieve this, but I have been testing it using PPPoe and a RADIUS server (freeradius). When they login, a PPP tunnel will be created and routed correctly to the internet (with relevant access controls setup through squid). If anyone else has any ideas in respect to this sort of setup, I would welcome suggestions! > > Any recommendation on implementing "walled garden" > with freeRadius and cisco 1100 APs.
