I am going away next week and one of the motels we are going to provides wireless internet access. To access it you need to have a username and password. I assume this has to be setup within windows. How do i do it with Windows 98?

418894 2006-01-06 22:36:00 Its probably just like most corporate networks, you open up your browser and before you can surf the net it asks for a username and password. When you register at the hotel they'll probably ask if you want access to the wifi and then give you a username and password. Or they could have a small peice of third party software that tracks your usage and then your charged for it. Just wait till you get to the hotel im sure someone there will be able to tell you how to set it up. Pete O'Neil (6584)
