Charon simplifies reselling Internet access via
WiFi access points. It installs onto Linksys,
ASUS, and other common WiFi access points and
manages automatic price and access negotiation
with local wireless customers, charging them via
the mikolaj.cx micropayment system. Deposits are
accepted via either cash or credit card. It will
ultimately provide secure and fraud-resistant
access by utilizing cash-like settlement,
reputation tracking, and PKI-based non-repudiable
contracts, to protect both the end-user and the
access provider.
