Hi,

You want to prohibit that the same user (person) uses his login credentials on more then one device ?

The first possibility :

Note : only the last login will grant access, previous logins using the same user credentials are disconnected.
Maybe not what you want.

Next possibility :
Use vouchers will a very small number of minutes - 5 or so.
Also activate this option :

Ones the voucher is used, it will become unusable very fast.
Drawback : it's up to you to remove the MAC addresses from the MAC list, so no more automatic time out.

Next solution :
Use FreeRadius to enforce Captive portal authentication.

When you use settings like this :

only one user/password combination can be active, all other attempts will get denied.

Maybe a drawback : you'll be using FreeRadius. You'll have to learn a lot about this "tool" top manage it a "little bit".
