I've used the following method to set up an Allstar node to a public wi-fi
without using a separate keyboard or monitor.  

You just need a spare wi-fi router and either a phone, tablet or laptop.

Connect the Pi using Cat-6 cable to the spare wi-fi router that you brought
with you.
Use the tablet, phone or laptop to wireless connect to the spare router.
Then you can SSH into the pi and set the wi-fi up to connect to the public
wi-fi access port.  
Then just unplug the pi from the spare router and you should be operational
on the public wi-fi.

Works great.
