Creating Wireless Hotspot

    I have 6 Short Term apartments in the 1 building and I am considering Wireless Adsl (professsionally installed), in order to add another facility for my guests.
    I would be putting in 1 Adsl connection and a wireless router.
    I would be willing to provide a Pc card for each apartment.
    I could also remotely add the Mac address of a guest's laptop.

    Q1/ Would this be of use to many people?

    Q2/ Would Network Administrators have an issue with their employee installing my Pci card on their laptop? I could send the software over to them for checking first.

    Q3/ Can anybody think of any other issues?

    Regards,

    Ken90;)

    Why go through so much trouble.
    If a person wants to make use of this then they should supply their own equipment.
    Just tell them its available and if they want it its their.
    Set it up so they need a username/password, get a firewall etc.
    But don't go dealing with their own tech support. This is not up to you to do.

    Having said that.
    Excellent idea to provide this as a perk in your apts.
