I might add that I am going to be doing similar for a group of hotels and
there is an excellent D-Link product that allows you to set times allowed
for wireless, issues receipts, auto disconnects when time is up etc.
Brilliant looking gear on paper but I haven't yet had my hands on it.
I am in no way connected with D-Link so this isn't a commercial advert. I
just thought their two products working together gave the end user the
ability to do all without calling me back all the time to set things up once
it is in place. That is why I like it. I would prefer the extra money but a
happy customer makes me more over a longer period!
