Wireless Networking help

[hordanes]

What I want to do is create a wireless network here and my job, but I want to set it up like a few hotels have it, where you launch your web browser and have to accept the Terms of Use agreement before it allows you to access the internet.

We want to set this up in our conferences room so people can access the web but at the same time block access to our network drives.

I hope this is possible.

Thanks!

I think it's possible... I fairly certain hotels use something similar to Sputnik or Chillispot

If you get a linksys WRT54G v4 or earlier (check ebay), you can load DD-WRT firmware and it will allow you to use the chillispot/sputnik hotspot.

I don't know that it won't allow access to network drives, but if it's a seperate access point in your conference room, you might be able to create a seperate vlan on your switch for that AP so that it can't access the rest of the network.
