How to change users homepage when connecting to wireless router?

I was wondering if it would be possible to have a WiFi access point for customers to connect to that would bring up a starting page which would be my web-page instead of their homepage. Just wondering if it is possible to do it through the wireless router it self or through a proxy server.How to change users homepage when connecting to wireless router?
Depends on the router. There's some third party firmware like DD-WRT that allows you to do this. Using a proxy server isn't the right solution -- what you need is an access point that intercepts DNS requests and gives back the IP address of your start page until the users are logged in or whatever.
