I could be way off base here. I dont run a hotspot with MT at this time
but I have played with it. You might want to try
http://forums.mikrotik.com/ for help.
If i remember correctly when you create a hotspot server it creates a
DHCP server for this "virtual interface" and thus it is a independent
DHCP server for that hotspot. Then you could have the MT handle the IP
leases. Also I believe that if you use MAC authentication for the
hotspot what you are trying would work.

Hi,
I serve hundreds of users off this MT router... I can't turn on DHCP
for a single location for a free hotspot. :(

What if you have the the MT do the DHCP to the end user instead of
the Linksys? Turn off NAT or do DHCP passthrough or something like
that? This way you'll have better accountability of your active
hotspot users.

Hi,
We have several free hotspots that we use Linksys firewall/access
points. The Linksys also serves the DHCP address and lease time, etc.
Is there a way with a Mikrotik to have a simple splash screen appear
with each new MAC address that comes from the same IP address? Each
real IP on the Linksys has a default gateway of a MT router.
