If you have an Aircard with only slightly slower speed, what's the problem? I'm not sure why you would even select Internet as your MyWay option in that case. Use your Aircard and take the upgrade and breakfast, or the 1000 points.

Even without the other choices and with a slightly slower Aircard, I would still rather connect through my own Aircard than the unsecured, unencrypted hhonors connection.

The certificate and secure login (even if it were current) is relatively meaningless. Once you're logged in, you're still transmitting and receiving on an unsecured, unencrypted network.
