Dear Friends,

I need your help that I am looking for one of the Access Point or Wireless router which have a capability that when any one trying to connect with it, it redirect the user on my web page on which I am running my advertisments. This solution is for HOT SPOT.

So I'm using the 'wireless connect' program on my laptop so I can check my mail in my Outlook Express, what are either that connect program or Outlook Express supposed to do with a webpage?

Obviously, you're looking for professional software. Better find a professional company that sells such and use their knowledge and support.

DD-WRT

DD-WRT is the way to go!

Just buy a liksys WRT54G router or similar
install the firmware
and there you have it:

An INSANE amount of features: overclocking, powerboost, HTTP redirect, access management, Repeater functionality, Hotspot ability, INSANE security, ADD NETWORK (like google adsense, except on EVERY accessed web page, see anchorfree) the works. It is FREE, FUNCTIONAL, and very high QUALITY. (Just make sure you follow the directions to istall).

Quoting from somewhere...

"It turns your $50 router into a $500 router!"

I'd look into it if I were you, for I believe you'd like DD-WRT.

Access Point with Login Authentication

Contact Highspeed Hotspot at highspeedhotspot(dot)com This is exactly what you are looking for. There is even banner rotating capabilities built into their custom portal.

Make sure you submit a contact request with them as they are a startup and would be able to work with you so might be able to do some beta with them ;-)
