What about adding the IP address to a address list with action="" and bypassing the rule if it matches the list?  You could have the entry timeout every hour so people would only get it once every hour.  I haven't thought it all the way through, but it should be doable.

NGL, we're in the central valley, so let me know if you need a hand, equipment, etc.  You have some neighboring WISPs on the California list (califor...@wispa.org) that may be able to lend a hand as well.

No you cannot force something on their normal screen.  But what Josh was stating was you can setup a Redirection so that any client that opens a browser and tries to go to a website will be redirected to a site of your choice.  Now that works good but that is all they would get.  Like Chris stated if you have a Mikrotik in the line you can enable the hotspot so that they would get a splash page for until the hit a continue button.  Neither are a very good option.

I would like to send it out to all clients, to be seen on their monitor.

What do you mean by emergency broadcast? Free service to any customer for a while or actually send out a communicating broadcast. If so how do you expect others to receive it.

We just had a 8000 acre fire go through our area. Called the Wye Fire.  In fact it is only 75% contained at this time. I came within 1/2 mille of my main tower for that area. 450 families were forced to evacuate with very little notice/ The phone lines went down about 2 hours prior to evacuation. There is no cell phone or television  service in the area.

What I would like to do is do an emergency broadcast from the AP's to the clients. Is this possible?
