thanks for your suggestion Ben.

The only one in that list which seems to support bandwidth restrictions in
attitude ajustment is coovachilli.

I have seen that coovachilli has an option "-noradallow" to authorize
sessions when RADIUS is not available and an "splash mode" to just show an
splash website to the clients. That is right what I want. I don´t want to
create user accounts because this is a public hot-spot. I will try if I can
get those two options working together.

Do you know if coovachilli allows to restrict which ports can use the
clients? I mean, I just want to allow my client to access port 80 and 443,
is that possible? An I suppose that clients in the public network will be
in a private subnet isolated from my lan, isn´t it?

thanks.
Pablo.
