Subject: [WISPA] Question about hosting client's POS merchant account for 
credit card processing

I am curious if anyone has experience providing wireless service to small 
businesses who use a POS credit card system.

My own chats with various small biz owners here in St. Louis suggests that 
their merchant account providers tend to expect a twisted-pair phone line 
and/or dedicated DSL/cable, no wireless.

I imagine this may vary depending on who actually provides the merchant 
account, but has anyone received feedback from such providers about their 
expectations for serving the credit card machines wireless?  E.g. must you use 
dedicated, encrypted wireless links (as common sense would suggest), and/or 
VPNs, or must the POS machine sit on a dedicated LAN, etc?

Thanks.

P.S. By POS I mean Point of Sale, to avoid any confusion. ;)
