Hi Petros, Nicolas,
I guess it depends on how you define your needs. There are a few things
that might be worth taking a quick look at.
Daloradius (http://www.daloradius.com/) is a full-featured billing system
that is Open Source and supports both voucher and post-paid billing
options. It has a captive portal.
Freeside (http://freeside.biz/freeside/) is a full ISP management system
that supports voucher and captive portal among many other features.
RadiusDesk (https://sourceforge.net/projects/radiusdesk/) is Open Source
and has billing/captive portal features
None of the above will run on a WiFi AP but are designed as a gateway
server software that would need probably something like an Intel NUC or
similar to run.
There is also PfSense (https://www.pfsense.org/), and a host of similar
software, that are network gateway/security solutions designed to run on
small memory/cpu footprint devices that also includes a captive portal but
no voucher systems.
Cheers... Steve Song

Hi Nicolas,
Thanks for your answer. It creates two more questions, though:
1. Can you recommend any functionally equivalent solution for the
time being?
None that I know of.
there might be a way using nodogsplash and a radius server, but never
tried.
2. Do you have any expectations when PitBull
could be available?
End of the year maybe? don't know, sorry :(
Best,
P.

Hi Petros,
Right now PitBull is not available for general use... it is close
to be
an MVP of something that we want to have.
It doesn't use NoDogSplash, just it's own way of dealing with
traffic.
For now I suggest not to use it... till it gets announced properly
:)
Sorry for the delay, and thanks for the understanding,
