Hi Marty,

there's is no preferred way because it really depends on your requirements, 
I see mainly 2 options:

   - coova-chilli for distributed captive portal (sitting on the AP)
   - PfSense, OpnSense, PacketFence for a centralized solution (will need 
   layer2 VPN if APs are distributed in different layer2 networks) 

There were similar discussions on this list, the more relevant ones are:

   - https://groups.google.com/d/msg/openwisp/nbo98Sz4k2Q/jVsxQtAFDwAJ
   
Once you have chosen your architecture you can then look in the specific 
documentation and information of the project you prefer, PfSense seems the 
one with the most information available to me but I'm not the super expert 
on this front so I encourage others to give their suggestions if they have 
anything useful to add!

Best regards
Federico
