Thanks Meyer.
While I always want to get my hands dirty, I have not yet written any
squid helpers.
Point me somewhere for starters.
And please note that because the WiFi will be a free service, I do not
want to incur more costs on equipment (Mikrotik) unless it is the only
alternative. Any specifics off Mikrotik you can recommend?
Amos, other users,
Is there nothing else I can do with squid to achieve my goal?
