My upcoming todos: 1. Get ndsctl to measure the data usage correctly - might need to dig into iptables 2. Get TollGates to recognize each other so that they can do business with one another 3. Either try to fit a cashu wallet onto the TollGate or make nostr events to broadcast connection intent so that DVMs can pay invoices on the router's behalf

I tried doing number 3 about two weeks ago with the intention of enabling TollGates to resell each other's Internet gateways. The router's resources are much too limited for CDK or cashu-cli though. Now I'm using an endpoint that melts cashu tokens to LNURL. Eventually the router's need a way to issue payments as well though...
Number 2 is about building a mesh network. Thats the end goal. Captive portals are just a useful milestone...
Walls stop you from getting somewhere. TollGates pay for the road that gets you where you want to go. The TollGate is for encouraging you to share your WiFi
