Richard:
Usually, with hotels, they will want you to connect and then open the browser,
where you are directed to their site and you have to fill out a user name and
password. After that, you are really connected.
Lastly, the reason why it is connecting to a neighboring network is because it
has been connected at some point. The only way to prevent that is to turn off
wireless, go into network manager (app. 45) and delete the unwanted profile.
Then, turn on wireless. It should connect to yours. If not, downarrow to
select your actual network press select on that one.

Subject: [icon-discuss] interesting unanswered questions
Hello;
A number of interesting questions have come up but I've never seen an answer
posted. If someone is replying directly to the sender it might be interesting
for the rest of us as well.
I am curious as to what issues I will come up against when using the braille
plus at a hotel or public site. I suspect they will want some sort of user
name and password and just taking a quick look I don't see an obvious option
for that info.
Also it appears that one of my neighbors has invested in a wireless router.
When trying to connect the braille plus often tries to connect to the wrong
router. Although it seems to connect it can't be used because they apparently
have set up a secure connection.
Richard
