There is this thing I wrote, called the NAA (network authentication appliance)

http://www.freebsd.uwaterloo.ca/twiki/bin/view/Freebsd/NetworkAuthenticationApp
liance

To my knowledge nobody outside of our site uses it.  But we use it
for all all wireless access at the University of Waterloo.

It also supports this thing I wrote called the "Toilet Tank Traffic Shaper"

http://www.freebsd.uwaterloo.ca/twiki/bin/view/Freebsd/ToiletTankTrafficShaper

which is handy to keep the dvd downloaders in check.

Installation of the NAA is not yet at the "make; make install"
stage.  Rather "do all these steps, think, do some more, test,
hmm, fix this, call the developer, ok it's almost working now".  

So, you are welcome to contact me if you try the NAA, and get
stuck.

I have a client who has 3 restaurants and wants to provide wifi access
to the customers. He wants to be able to control who and when it can be
accessed. He is not planning on charging for the access at the moment
but certainly would like that ability. I want to use freebsd, but can
not find a software pkg that will allow me to do this. Does anyone have
an idea or better yet implemented something like this?

Thanks in advance,

Jeff
