[http://www.coova.org CoovaChilli] is a (GNU GPL) captive portal based on chillispot. It will allow your SME in server and gateway mode to have a third interface. On this new interface, you can plug AP(s) or switchs, and chilli daemon will act as a dhcp server. Every clients connected on this new "lan" will have to authenticate themeself before coova-chilli allows traffic to pass.

Once authenticated, clients will have only web access (http/https). You can customize it. (I recommend the use of a VPN for full Internet access).
Once authenticated, clients will have only web access (http/https). Of course, you can customize firewall rules to allow more access, but I recommend the use of a VPN for full Internet access.
The default is to use SME accounts for the authentication, but you can easily add users at the radius level which will only have web access. (a guest account can be enabled/disabled with a key in the db)
