And, be sure you check with the hotel: SOME hotels only allow ONE
computer for a single access charge. They capture the MAC address of
your network card and that is the 'authorized user.' So, even if you
logoff and logon again with a different PC, they will recognise it as a
separately chargeable action.
Been there, been charged twice... :-(
