| Should Firstspot act as DHCP server or can I use my Windows 2008 server as DHCP server |

Yes, FirstSpot will work with third party DHCP server like Windows 2008 DHCP. Make sure you disable FirstSpot DHCP server first (and restart FirstSpot) before enabling other DHCP server.

Basically, you need to mimic FirstSpot DHCP server behavior. E.g. the default gateway and DNS needed to be Visitor Network Interface IP, and the client IP needs to be in a same subnet.
