If you're looking for a captive portal (not NoCat) that runs on WRT54g -- look at dd-wrt with Chillispot: http://www.dd-wrt.com/ and the chillispot forums: http://www.chillispot.org/forum/  or wifidog: http://www.ilesansfil.org/wiki/WifiDog/InstallationWRT54G

I appreciate this need. Unfortunately the NoCatAuth gateway is written in Perl and won't run on a compact device (unless you count the Soekris, which you might look into). I think metrix.net sells small router PCs that could perform this function. It would be great if NoCatSplash supported auth, but so far no one has expressed an interest in supporting development of that feature.

I think David Zendzian has done something about this, but I haven't seen his code. Again, no one has expressed interest in supporting development of that feature, and since I don't need it I haven't written it. Hope this helps!
