    Hey guys, I'm back after a few years, really missed this place. I'm configuring a WiFi Hotspot ticketing system. I am using a Tp-Link TD-W8961N Wireless N ADSL 2+ Modem router. This device has both an ADSL modem and wireless router all in one, so how would I configure it so that I can use a billing system? I want to sell prepaid WiFi airtime as well as charge per minute. But according to what I've read online, I'd need another wireless AP and I'd also have to use the Tp-Link Wireless modem router as just a modem and I'd have to set up a server PC connected to the AP.

    Thanks.
