How do I use my hotels WiFi on my apple Tv? I cannot figure out how to agree to the hotels T&C as there is no web browser to do so? Seems a bit amateurish on Apples part.


Has anyone got a work around? Aside from contacting the hotels ISP and using personal hot spot.

You don't most major hotel chains add extra layers of security to prevent customers from adding streaming devices. They do this to limit the amount of band width they use. This is NOT an Apple TV or Apple issue, it's the hotel chain you are dealing with. You can contact your hotel's networking staff and see if they will offer a work-around however don't count on it.


The good news is there is a work around and that is to get yourself a Travel Router and setup your own network at your hotel. You can easily find Travel Routers from Amazon, for example


Amazon.com: GL.iNet GL-MT300N-V2(Mango) Portable Mini Travel Wireless Pocket VPN Router - WiFi Router/Access Point/Extender/WDS | OpenWrt | 2 x Ethernet Ports | OpenVPN/Wireguard VPN | USB 2.0 Port | 128MB RAM : Electronics


Pretty simple to setup and then simply connect the Apple TV to the new network and you are in business.
