[arm-allstar] How to connect to hotel Wi-Fi while traveling with a portable node

[ssedgwick]

Hi all, I hope this question has not be ask before.

I was traveling last week and took along my portable hamVOIP V1.5 pi allstar node that I kluged together at the last minute.  It’s similar to the nice portable allstar node that Doug built that is show on his hamvoip webpage.  I had an HDMI display, mouse and keyboard to enter the WiFi access and it worked great while I stayed with family using their home internet.

I few nights I stayed at a hotel that required me to log into their Wi-Fi using a browser by entering my room number and my last name, but as far as I know V1.5 does not have a browser option so I was not able to enter the information and use the hotel WiFI.

I stayed at two different hotels and both required the same information to use their WiFi.

Anyone have a suggestion or work around that will allow the node to work on this type of hotel WIFI?

Thanks
