Yes, makes sense.  You want to allow a given MAC address only one free 
login (or better, a specified number of logins) during a specified 
interval, say, 24 or 48 hours.

That feature would be useful to me too.  I have a couple of local 
residents who are living on my free login.  I have it slowed down to 
about dial-up speed but that's apparently good enough for them.  I hate 
to slow it down any more so as not to affect legitimate free users. 
This feature would address that problem.

Not a high priority for me right now.  I can go have a talk with them. 
But I imagine that would be very useful elsewhere.
