We're planning to have 2 networks, one for permanent members that will
offer an additional layer of security (and now thanks to Alex, some
traffic shaping as well), and another network for our mobile members
which will have a single password (and no QoS or shaping).

We are planning to use Deskmag's new coworking management software
when it's available, and Ideally I would like to integrate with
something like RADIUS to automagically allow members to create new
passwords, set access times, durations, etc. But, I'm not sure what
kind of integration capabilities we will get.

For now, a cloud authentication service seems to fit the bill for us
but the only one I have found is AuthenticateMyWifi.

Thanks for your thoughts, Toby
