Whilst there are plenty of instances where one would find people jumping on a free wireless location (the people that sit just outside an airline's airport lounge, the people that pull into a McDonald's parking lot, etc. etc.) I would think that it would seem kinda' funky to find someone doing so just outside a hotel's executive lounge. If done at a time when hall traffic is low, it probably would go without a hitch. It would be interesting to know what would happen if "caught." At least we know there's a way to get the free wireless (and this probably works at other prop's as well). Whatever works, I guess....

Has anyone ever been watched over that they are only having a continental breakfast at any Hilton hotel? All the ones i have stayed at it has always been "breakfast" That has been the case in USA, Austria, UK, Spain and many others.

With regards to the wireless there is a whole area where the six lifts meet where you can connect to the wireless without anyone really watching you or being in the way. you dont need to stand on the door step of the lounge.
Also like i said once you have connected the first time you can go back to your floor or the lobby and carry on. So you only need to stand in the hallway for about 1-2 mins max. Just tryin to help people out that feel 20$ a day for internet is alot. Especially as Tokyo is not much of a Wifi abundant city! Unlike Paris
