How to Convert a Hotel Land Line to a WiFi
Many hotels around the world today provide access to the Internet, through either a wireless or a wired connection. If you are staying in a hotel that has a wired land land that provides access to the Internet, converting it to a WiFi connection takes nothing more than connecting a wireless router. Many hotels already have wireless connection available, so be sure to check for that access before you start setting up your own WiFi. You may also want to ask permission before you expose the hotel's Internet to other potential users.
