Post subject: No authentication for a second user

PS installed successfully. Problem is that when one user is login with authentications username/password a second user can just go direct to the internet without login.

What can be the cause of this.

Did you put a router between FirstSpot and the client? Since FirstSpot identify the client using MAC address (i.e. MAC-based session handling), all FirstSpot sees is the MAC of the router (as MAC is a level 2 header).

Make sure you don't use the WAN port of the AP (otherwise it will act as a router).
