SCENARIO:
When version 24 of DD-WRT was released in beta, one of the first things I wanted to accomplish was to setup FON on 1 SSID and my internal network on another SSID. It took me a while to find the time to work on it but here is how I set it up. I tested this on a WRT54G v4, WRT54GS v1 and a Buffalo WHR-G54S running WPA and WEP for the internal network security.
STEPS:
1) Install the v.24 dd-wrt standard beta version (we are using the 2006-0911 release) of firmware available HERE -- Instructions for installing DD-WRT on the WRT54G or GS are available HERE
2) Logon to the web management interface in DD-WRT. Click the Wireless tab, under the Virtual Interfaces click the Add button.
3) Set the Physical Interface SSID and the set Virtual Interface SSID to FON_HotSpot. Enable AP Isolation and set the Network Configuration to Unbridged. Scroll to the bottom and select Save Settings. 
4) The IP Address and Subnet Mask fields should now be present at the bottom of the form. Enter the IP Address of 192.168.181.1 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. Scroll to the bottom and select Save Settings.
5) Click the Wireless Security sub-tab. Change the Security Mode for the Physical Interface to what ever security you want to use for your LAN. (On the FON interface the the Security Mode should remain at disabled.) Scroll to the bottom and select Save Settings.
