I'm having a problem with hotel wireless also right now. Laptop is connecting fine, although connection is sometimes pretty slow.
I'm using Firefox on the laptop and able to load pages. There is no login page, but when I first opened a page in the browser I saw that it said it was being redirected...but then the page I requested loaded.
On my N800 (with OS 2008) it sees and connects to the wireless network...but I can't ever load a page.
Any help? I've only had my tablet for a day, and now am away on business for a week. Was really hoping to load this up with maps, pdfs, and email for my time away.
P.S. My laptop has bluetooth, can I use that to share the hotel internet connection if I can's get it working another way. Or can I use the USB cable to download Maps and other content to the N800?
Edit 2: I see in
this thread
that it should be possible to setup via bluetooth...but it also appears to be fairly in depth, and I don't have much free time to try and experiment this week. Hopefully I can figure out another way to connect over the week.
