Then when you get to the hotel you have this device talk to the hotel network and all of your devices talk to this one. The difficulty comes when you have one of those hotels that brings up a web page asking you to follow their conditions. My understanding is that you initially accept that with your computer and then make this router look like your computer to the hotel network. Of course the other question is how accessible is their control interface. I’ll be buying one of these for my next trip, but I don’t have any plans until possibly the end of the year.
