Lightning Wi-Fi FAS provides a captive portal paywall for Wi-Fi networks and requires users to pay 100 sats (0.000002BTC) on Bitcoin's Layer 2 - Lightning Network for 1 hour of internet access. The Wi-Fi network and captive portal are created using a Raspberry Pi and open source software nodogsplash. Once a client joins the Wi-Fi network, they are forwarded to the Lightning Wifi FAS, where their payment is processed and they are granted internet access. The invoice generation and payment processing are handled on the back-end using BTCPay Server and lightning-charge.
