    Looking to get this set up so that when a user accesses our wifi they have to check in on facebook first. Does anyone know anyone who knows about this? A certain type router is required and i believe not all the ones recommend by facebook work in ireland. Would be interested in employing someone to get this set up either if its a bridge too far for a lay person. Thanks

    Pretty much the exact same tech is used here and in the US. The difference is the radio regions which all equipment will let you set.

    These wont act as modems, you supply your own and if you're using another CP for non FB customers then you'll be using your own router anyways.
