Well.. in my understanding... NAS send username and password to radius
and expecting the answer from radius.
Then radius will answer accept or reject. This already working well with
our Livingston PM2e.
I did try Login-Time and Expiration with the above NAS and it working
very well too.

The different with wireless and or hotspot is the additional attribute
about 'Max-All-Session' and 'Expiration'. With this tipe, radius
will send conditional accept connection because will contain the time
left.

Has you try that Expiration working for Chillispot ? I hope it work.

We need to set the expiration on the certain date for each time user
doing top-up. This is similarly like GSM prepaid way.

Example..
on date 1, user buy the primary card (first registration), the session
will set for max 2 hours but valid until date 7
on date 7, user buy the top up voucher for 2 hours more, so the session
for him/her will  upgrate into max 4 hours but the expiration date
change into date 15
etc.
