Then again, this was before they started > offering free Internet access. Last hotel I was at worked that way. Before anything worked - I had to open a browser window, which was redirected to their home page - and agree to the terms of usage. This was the case with wired and the wireless that they offered. Make sure your browser allows javascript - the place I was at used javascript in their agreement page thingy. So if you have a firefox extension that only allows it for specified sites, or you have it disabled, you may need to adjust your browser settings. The wired one only made me agree once a day - but if I changed mac address (attached another computer), it expired the old mac address and made me agree with the new one.
