We have public wi-fi. When we first installed it we had a "walled garden" which forced folks to come to a landing page before they were able to browse. We did away with that since it became a barrier to entry for many folks. Today visitors can just sign on to our wifi without any kind of terms of use. Of course, we only allow port 80 traffic on the public wifi.

I see that a lot of places like coffee shops that offer free wi-fi require a person to agree to terms of use before connecting. I would be interested in knowing whether or not you have a similar requirement for public use of your wi-fi. John R.
