Keep those shows coming Chip!  Nice job.   :)

The one catch to using any open WiFi or hotspots, particularly with
hotels, is many require some sort of web UI "action" be taken to log on
to their network.
Sometimes it is an actual ID and password, many times it is a simple
"acceptance of terms" click.
The SB players cannot see nor respond to these web UI screens as the
players do not have a web browser.
If there is no such web UI action needed then your SB player can indeed
use these open WiFi's.

There are ways around this using Internet Connection Sharing and/or
bridging, but these require a computer be in use and the SB player is
then connected to the computer.
