Just got off the phone with Hotel Management getting one bypassed
through the hotspot authentication. Apparently people bring their
gaming systems to hotels. I guess could make up a big laminated sheet
with a Static IP Addresses that's bypassed in the hotspot setup, then
they would have to manually enter that in and it would be bypassed.
When they called me, the guest had already entered in the hotel WAN IP
into the xbox, (I guess they got it from another device that was
connected) but didn't know the subnet or Gateway. The initial call was
'Give me the Gateway address for a guest to use' before I could figure
out what they were actually trying to do.

I had no idea this was a thing.

For those of you doing hotels, or anything with a Hotspot portal
page. How do you handle people who want to hook up gaming
systems? From what I understand, you can't open a browser unless
it can connect to the <gaming> network, so it will never be able
to click the 'accept' button on the proxied webpage. Do you
manually enter in IP Addresses, or bypass MAC's, or just outlaw
them alltogether?
