Am I correct in my understanding that you plug the hotel internet cable into the computer to connect to the internet & then use the computer's wifi to connect the iPhone? If so, is there a quick way of explaining how you do this?
On your computer a mac i hope
click piece of pie icon next to the digital clock top right of screen.
turn on Airport and wait a few seconds
Same icon select create network, make up a name and tick the require password box.
Create password
OK
Open System preferences
Under internet and network heading click Sharing.
Tick internet sharing
close
On iphone
click
settings
wifi
on
a list of wifi networks will pop up. choose the network you just created.
and you're in.
Alternatively check what wifi networks you are receiving before you pay for hotel internet as you may get lucky with a local network from a novice who has not protected his wifi connection to the internet with a password
When finished turn off wifi as it saves battery and also does not announce your presence ie "Oakape's iphone" to anyone in the vicinity searching or monitoring wifi. This is more of an issue for the ladies who can reveal their first name to anyone who is trawling at starbucks or the pub when they walk through the door with wifi on.
