I've done something similar, but didn't like the static passwords. My guest wifi password is the current date, in YYYY-MM-DD format, it's been a great way to keep my guests (mildly) satisfied. The format changes on occasion

This is automated, with a shell script and DDWRT

So guests who stay overnight have to enter a new password after your script runs at 00:01?
