Restrict devices from accessing open wireless

Asked by maharlika in Wireless Technologies, 802.11 Wireless Access Points, Miscellaneous

I need to put in wireless interenet access for patients and visitors at our facility.  I'll just use dsl or T1, with wireless AP's throughout.  However, I don't want the wireless devices on our existing, secured network to be able to access this open network--they will be in the same physical proximity, and are already using our secured wireless network.  I don't want to do something like MAC acl because it would be very cumbersome to add all these devices and keep it updated.  Likewise, I don't want to hide the ssid so that it is easier for visitors to access. So how can I make our devices so that they don't even try to get on the unsecured, open wireless network?

Thanks!
