We have a Linksys WAP55AG & a WRT54G connected to a 10Mbps hub.
<br>
The hub connects to a virtual pc running ZoneCD (free version of
PUBLICip)
<br>
It's output goes to the Red zone of IPCop (also running on a virtual
pc)
<br>
<br>
We setup the ZoneCD to display a copy of the library policy.
<br>
You need to accept it to go on.<br>
<br>
We also have a printer connected to the hub..<br>
Our in-house laptops are set to print there.<br>
<br>
Patrons can follow instructions on a web page to install a printer
driver on their own laptops.<br>

style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">We are testing captive
portal technology so that patrons using
their own laptops will have to agree to our Acceptable Use Policy
before using
the Internet through the library’s WiFi. It means patrons have to
use a browser before before being able to use the Internet. If patrons
would
begin by opening an email client and try to connect, they would not be
able
to. My understanding is that other places besides libraries that have
public Internet available are typically set up in this fashion. What
other WiFi setups are you using that function in other ways? I’m
trying to get an understanding of what other <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Ohio</st1:place></st1:State> libraries are doing to provide
this
service.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
