Can FirstSpot authenticate users according to area. For example like users of a certain area can only log in but not to another Firstspot area. |

To moderator or other person who knows the answer :-) -> Is [name deleted] related to PatronSoft's First Soft software? They seem to offer a network style of WiFi hotspot access, much like [name deleted] service through Starbucks some months ago but on a less ultra-corporate scale and based in Southern California.
On the same note, will this software eventually integrate methods for this type of access? Or will it eventually allow for servers to join together in a network to share databases in real-time?
To other forum users: Essentially, couldn't a company use FirstSpot to set up a server, then have each access point VPN to that server, regardless of location? As long as the thoroughput and bandwidth are adequate through the VPN, wouldn't this work? |

To yantzen:
You can take advantage of Scenerio 3 : Centralized Network Topology (i.e. Multiple Network Segments) and "Redirect PHP file" feature. Each network segment should belong to one physical area.
To chrisbuckler:
1) No, we are not related
2) In Scenerio 2 : Distributed Network Topology, each FirstSpot can share the user account information in a centralized ODBC datasource
