Hi, I can't answer the question, but I've got a question myself, so I opened a new thread.

I'm not aware of any open access point with such a transmitting capacity. Don't you worry liability, if somebody does misuse your access point? Even if it's not an open access point, there's more than enough software available to access "non-open" access points. I set the transmitting capacity of my wifi to it's lowest level, see screenshot selection. Offered are 100%, 50%, 25%, 12% and 6%. I would be surprised to see it in about a 9 meter distance.
