[OT] Public open access WLAN

Hi chaps,

A local cafe I frequent has asked for advice on installing WLAN access
that is completely free for their customers/passers by. Their
broadband supplier is OK with this, so I'm after a cheap-and-cheerful
turnkey access point which ideally also has a built in firewall to
prevent spammers etc abusing the service. I also guess some kind of
clever routing is required to prevent two PCs connected to the AP from
being able to see each other? Suddenly what seemed like a simple idea
is starting to look expensive / complex... Any suggestions?

Patrick
