   Should be very doable with say OpenWRT with a transparent proxy.. Would    
   suggest considering an Asus RT-N16 for the router... should support what you    
   are wanting to do.   
      
   All un-authenticated (open) connections get their adress lookups forced to    
   your web/bbs server's IP, and that server redirects all "default traffic to    
   "yourbbsname.wifi" for example, which will show the BBS page.. you can use    
   flashterm, and the web interface pretty reasonably.
