If you're getting an hour or a day's access to WiFi, what on Earth is the point of a complex log-in key? I'm on WiFi right now, with the password SrfjzZhS- . In teh past, I've had to deal with 16-digit hexadecimal passwords. Why not just have it as ABCD? it's not as if anyone else in the conference room is systematically going through all the possible numerical usernames (mine is vis17493 plus an extra digit if anyone cares).
Why have more, cumbersome security for what is an unsecured access?
What's the worse-case scenario? One in a thousand people is a cheapskate hacker who's prepared to crunch through simple passwords to save £4 on web access?
Frankly, it's idiocy like this that will kill the WiFi hotspot model.
