You are posting from a news group search engine. Don't you think it
might be easier/quicker to use it for it's intended purpose?
Results 1 - 10 of about 243,000 for wireless+hotspot+access+control.

An appropriate Usenet newsgroup to look in would be 'alt.internet.wireless'
where the problem is discussed very *frequently*.

And you'd better hope that the users are sweet/innocent who don't won't
be playing "practical jokes" on you or others. As you probably think
everything on the Internet is a web page, you should also think rather
strongly about using a proxy to prevent the worst abuse.
