I have used PublicIP <a href="http://www.publicip.com/" rel="ugc">http://www.publicip.com/</a>&nbsp;and it works fantastic. It is a bootable CDrom and runs in memory, so it does not write to the hard drive. there are a couple requirements, first you need a pc to run it on (an old 386 would work just fine, and two nic cards. One nic goes to the router and the other to the Access Point.

Can I do this without a separate server? &nbsp;I just want a wifi router that hi-jacks the web page and authenticates the user.

Your reference to WRT54G got me poking around a bit. &nbsp;WRT54GL does have several hijack pages with radius authentication. &nbsp;Kudos.

The PHB wants a wireless router that hijacks the web page and queries for a username and password, like a hotspot.<br />
<br />
This is not for a commercial service. &nbsp;He just doesn't want to make people use a shared key, not charge them. &nbsp;So accounting is not necessary -- just authentication.<br />

I'm looking for an all in one solution.

Wireless Access with HTTP authentication page

Wireless networking is a method by which homes, telecommunications networks and enterprise (business) installations avoid the costly process of introducing cables into a building, or as a connection between various equipment locations. Wireless telecommunications networks are generally implemented and administered using radio communication. This implementation takes place at the physical level (layer) of the OSI model network structure. The key hardware components of a wireless computer network include adapters, routers and access points, antennas and repeaters.

Wireless Hardware

Wireless networking is anything related to the transfer of data between two (or more) devices without the use of a physical connection, ranging from getting advice on a new Bluetooth headset to configuring sophisticated enterprise level networks.
