Most hotels only charge $8-$10 per day for this service, with the additional charges often added to even a local phone call, doubt that you would find dialin cheaper.

yup. It's getting really popular in hotels worldwide. Of course they do charge for this, and it might be cheaper to dial in.

So, all that is needed is an ethernet rj45 cable to connect our laptop to
their "hub"?

The hotel probably uses DHCP.

We've got an individual going to Canada and he wants to take one of our
laptops to check his email. We have Outlook Web Access running, but he does
not intend to use dial up. He says the hotel has an internet connection that
he can plug directly into from our network card. Since we use static ip
addressing, I can't figure out if this will work. It seems to me that if the
hotel has a network connected to a T1, all our network settings would have
to be changed to the hotel's settings. Anyone done this or have any idea if
this works?
