> What sort of infrastructure would i need for one school with reliable strength? Any recommendations for actual equipment? What is the price estimate/range for one school in the first approach? Are there any companies that already exist that offer this solution including the login stuff as well? You need multiple APs and then an authentication/authorisation system that allows navigation for users once you know who they are and that they should have access to the network. The difference between both systems relies mainly on the authentication, and in both cases, most equipment vendors provide options to set a Guest Portal up. The other option would be to host a RADIUS server (also referred to as WPA Enterprise) that does the authentication. The regional administration where I live maintains some sort of student network for schools too, and they use RADIUS. They maintain a public website where user credentials are managed (you identify with a username/password they give you and you can change those credentials) and then connect to the wifi using those credentials Again, how you deploy this, depends in many cases on the vendor you choose and what they support.
