When you’re travelling a lot, hotel Wi-fi can easily become the bane of one’s existence. You leave to do some work for the day and come back, turn on the TV and the wifi is fighting you because it probably has trouble remembering your connection after agreeing to the terms and conditions on their captive portal.

I constantly have to fight with forgetting the connection, reneweing my DHCP lease and I’ve even resorted to chanting incantations for wifi. It’s almost like the Wifi is getting the same design choices as some hotel bathrooms nowadays.
