Last hospital stay, I used a dd-wrt router and after I accepted the terms with my pc I could use anything I had through the router till it rebooted the connection. Used repeater mode..
It is a little technical but it's simple after you catch on.
You can find if you have a dd-wrt capable router here :: dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Supported_Devices You might have an old router lying around that can be programmed to work.

Usually ask the front desk and they'll give you the info
unless I'm not understanding your question
not asking for password, when you log in to high end hotels a terms and conditions page pops up which you have to agree to before you can access wifi, its the same if your getting wifi from walmart or mcdonalds, usually a terms page comes up which you have to accept before you can get on there wifi. question is how can you accept the terms before you select there wifi to run thru mag box, because if hotel has terms page this must be agreed to by user before access to wifi is granted
Oh I see what you're saying. Cant you hit the keyboard button on remote and use it that way?
the bottom line is that IPTV streaming takes alot on bandwidth, more so with HD content too.
If that hotel chain is fine with that then it will work.. If not, then it won't

again thanx for the help im new to this iptv and just want to have all my ducks in order before I go back on the road. my main concern is I know the terms and condition page will come up on reg laptop use, so it should stop me from accessing hotel wifi before I agree to terms, which will not allow mag to access wifi if terms are not accepted
When the conditions page comes up you should be able to navigate through with keyboard.
Im not in front of mine now, but you should be able to use it just as you would a pc.
You may have to open browser on the mag first and accept terms then back out and use iptv.

thank you ,now im understanding, my concern is I check in to hotel hookup mag select wifi for hotel, then wont connect because I have not accepted terms. do you think the terms and condition page will show up thru wifi select on mag, or like you say open browser first and it will show there. again I have not done this yet but 20 years with same company I know every in and out of the hotel wifi world and I just trying to trouble shoot problem before it happens, again sorry to take up your time but I do appreciate answers that are given. I know this will help me and others who make are living on the road
I think if you open browser it should show, Like I said, I'm not sure though. I haven't had my mag anywhere but my home.
Makes since though. Give it a try is all you can do.
Good luck. Report back with results...
Maybe someone will chime in here thats done it.....

I used mag one day in a hotel wouldnt let me sign in because you had to sign in via web browser to get in hope this helps.
go on main portal and start surfing the web ...it will bring you on first page autorizzation acceptance....click it afterthat your hardware is autorized to use data.....now you can use stalker portal....but not every hotel they will give you 2 mega or more to be able to watch tv without freezing....
Sorry, it has been answered already so just ignore this .... too early for me!!! Motley I think there is a simple solution. The acceptance page you are talking about pops up when you are in the browser (on your phone or the PC), do the same for the MAG254, go into the browser and you should see the same page pop up, accept it and it should give you permission.
