[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1833541, member: 131855"] I know this doesn't help solve your problem but you may not be the only one having a problem. I don't use public wi-fi often but have used it at hotels from time to time. I have found that the support associated with these networks often horrible -- especially when it comes to knowledge of Apple gear. I rarely bother to call tech support or notify anybody. At one hotel we were in my MacBook Pro did not reliably connect to the hotel's internet. My wife spent a ridiculous amount of time with whatever group was providing what passed for support. It quickly became apparent that they were close to clueless about what the problem might be. IIRC their "solution" basically involved standing in the hallway to use the computer. . [/QUOTE]
