About this type of implementation...
 
The Windows server runs DNS Redirector and two sites in IIS, each bound to a unique IP address.
 
This is the most frequently used and simplest type of implementation for independent HotSpots.
 
Optionally, a SOHO Firewall/Router or one that also has integrated wireless could be used.  This would cut the cost of the separate Hub/Switch and Wireless Access Point as shown.  The only special consideration is that you must be able to specify the DNS Redirector server IP as the sole DNS Server handed out by DHCP Properties.  See FAQ #24.  Alternatively, you could run DHCP service from the Windows Server, turning it off on the SOHO Firewall/Router.
