Hello,
I'm trying to see if OpenWrt and Wifidog can do what I need. I have 150 locations around the US. They currently have high end Cisco waps. Their main function is for traveling employee’s laptops that authenticate with WPA/Radius. These users connect back to our corporate office over frame relay/MPLS. We have begun rolling out guest internet access. This has to go out a local DSL or Cable modem to avoid impacting WAN based business applications. We have rolled out a few with a Monowall VMware appliance running on a local machine, but it has not proven to be reliable and is rather cumbersome to setup. After looking around and testing, I am now on the OpenWrt/WRT54GL bandwagon. I'm blown away by the number of features I get for the price compared to the high end Cisco waps we have been buying. As for the guest internet, we  want to use the Wifidog captive portal feature, but anything would work that has the ability for the user to need nothing more than a code to get past the authentication browser.
Now for the fun part. I'm so impressed with this setup, I want to consider doing away with the high end Cisco waps all together. I’ve played around with the Wifidog  config, and I’m not sure if there is a way to have it ‘ignore’ one SSID, so I thought I’d see if there was a way to accomplish this within OpenWrt.  With the Cisco wap, I have 2 SSIDs. blah and blah-guest.  blah is our non broadcasting corporate SSID and blah-guest is the SSID on a different VLAN that goes to the monowall captive portal. Is it possible to accomplish this with WRT54GL/OpenWrt/Wifidog? Can I have OpenWrt to use Wifidog captive portal on one SSID, and WPA/Radius on another?
These sites are remote with no IT staff.  If there was any way I could get this setup down to one self-contained box, it would be a huge accomplishment.  Any tips or advice on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Matthew Kitchin

I'm trying to accomplish basically the same thing. A few minor differences on the 'corporate' SSID, but nothing major. Maybe someone out there has an idea.

i don't know about wifidog, but I believe multiple SSIDs work on atheros but maybe not broadcom

I don;t seem to be having a problem with the miltiple SIDs.
