I guess there is an internet gateway at this site that requires a username and password login. This is something a lot of hotels do for example. In many cases the WiFi is even just an open (unprotected) network.
I would first ask the holiday resort people if they can open up the internet access for your SB. They will need the SBs MAC address for that. If that is not an option then there is a workaround (but it is not that straight forward): The difficulty here is that the gateway will look at the MAC address of the device that needs internet connectivity. You could overwrite your laptops MAC address with the MAC address of your SB. Using your internet explorer, login to gain internet access. Then disconnect your laptop from the network and connect your SB to the network. If the SB is running the same IP address as your laptop had then your SB should have internet access now. The drawback of this is that you would need to do this every time the internet gateway decides to prompt for the login. -- Pascal Hibon 2 x SB3, 1 x SB Boom and 1 x SB Radio - all wireless ReadyNAS NVX running SBS iPeng on iPod Touch.
