Thanks a lot Jochen, I'm looking now on codeplex and on MSDN to see if there is a simple solution, I belive ICS implements a proxy, but I'm not sure if I can programmaticaly implement the redirection.

I'm searching the web and codeplex for solutions, the whole thing here is that I'm new to all of this stuff of proxies and wireless networks so maybe there is a simple solution but I don't see it. I'm also looking on the Internet Connection Sharing API because I belive that service implements a proxy but I don't know if I can use it for my purpose.
Do you know if there is a forum on microsoft where I can make that question?

Thanks once again.

Thanks Jochen, well I will research on the matter of writing a proxy but it sounds quite complicated, I'll post my solution if I find one

Clarification:

Thanks a lot Code-o-mat for your quick response, well when a client connect to my WiFi network and opens the browser I want the browser to show an specific page or show a message on the client screen or a browser popup window.
What I want is the same effect as changing the client's browser homepage, I've seen that on computers belonging to a domain where a domain administrator may change the browser's homepage at will. I've also read about something similar done in Hotels WiFi's.
I just found this here[^]:

"The wifi works in a similar way to a Hotels wifi hotspot, when you log on to the wifi connection and refresh your browser it immediately redirects the user to the advertising content page just like a hotel redirects you to the payment page upon initiation. On an iPhone it works even better by actually pushing a login box to the handset upon connection that displays the adverts."

Tha's exactly what I want but done using a SoftwareAP instead of a custom hardware.

Thanks a lot,
