If you setup the login forms for captiveportal so the page redirects to the billing page, if the billing page is ok'ed, add a temporary Radius account according to how much money the person paid and what your going rate is, and let them have access to your DSL setup. Otherwise, redirect to a "sorry, you cannot access network" page, and don't punch a hole through the firewall for the client. -Garrett
