Can you try a manual setting, making the settings found in the other room static? Or a similar IP number?
Or at least add the gateway/DNS/router/netmask from the settings in the other room?

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

I've tried manual settings in the rooms that are based on the settings that get pulled down when this machine can connect, but no luck in the rooms.
Duh, yeah I should have mentioned that we tried that....
I wonder if there's some WiFi / DHCP diagnostic thingie....
Sounds like the hotel has multiple wifi routers, and they might need to have someone reset the one nearest you...
I know it's a dumb question, but have you reported it to the management?
Yup. They shrugged. ND was not amused.

I agree. It sounds like the Ethernet side of the WAP is misbehaving.
The answer from management was "Oh yes, we know, WiFi works in the courtyard, we haven't worked it out in the rooms yet, so we're not letting folks do that."
This despite the fact we asked more than once about WiFi in this hotel and it was a criteria for choosing the hotel.
Sigh.
So, Mac people, I remember a few weeks ago there was some kind up update thingy that screwed everyone's torrenting up. What's the preferred OSX torrent client these days? Stil Azureus?
Jess, I'm running Azureus right now, and it seems to be pretty good.
And you can find comic torrents where?
Try demonoid.com. It's hit-or-miss, like going to a used bookstore, but they have a lot.
