Multiple Locations and configuring 2 different methods of Access

[Laker Netman]

You may be wanting something more like a captive
portal for some of your gateways.  Try googling
"captive portal".  I use chillispot myself;
http://www.chillispot.org

I have two wireless networks.  One is secured with
EAP-PEAP and auths users against our Active Directory
via RADIUS (ntlm_auth) for employees.  The other is
open, but has no direct connection to our main LAN. A
captive portal server (chillispot in my case) routes
between the public wireless and private wired network
to provide only Internet access to the public users
(guests, vendors, customers, etc) by explicitly
routing all of their traffic out the T1 hanging off
our private router.

Hope that helps.
