Hotel wireless problemsWhen I take my laptop on the road I have been having problem connecting to
the hotel wireless internet. I have a excellent signal strength and have disconnected the firewall and I still can not connect. I feel that there is some other setting I am over looking. Thanks for your help. Hi
