The following can be used to mitigate such:


Technology		Pros				Cons
---------------------------------------------------------------
IPSec			Can be really secure	Requires user to install
client
PPTP			Native windows client	Not very secure		
SSL VPN		Secure/clientless		Requires a bit of CPU
Temporal Keying	Pretty secure		Requires special client/cards


SSL VPN + Captive Portal is probably your best security option in a
hotspot environment.

A WISP would probably aim for CPE with IPSec or temporal keying
functionality.
