Re: Hotel wi-fi rant......
I have found two ways around this that generally work.
1) Become a member of the hotel's reward program. Marriott and the like will give free wifi to rewards members.
2) Politely discuss the issue with the front desk manager. Exagerate if you must the amount of travel you do in various chains and explain their wifi policies. In general low tier hotels, Motel 6, but even Residence Inn offer free wifi, but the likes of a regular Marrito or Hilto do not. Most often the manager will offer to comp your access.
Good luck.
