iPad to wired network
 

Hi all
im going to japan in a few weeks and was planning on bringing my iPad however im seeing that the hotels i'm staying in all have wired internet in the rooms.
any idea on how to get wired internet to work with an ipad?? someone mentioned airport express, but how easy is it and does it work all the time?
any advice would be great
thank you
:)

Welcome to Flyertalk.

Airport Express is an example of a class of products called travel routers. Use the Search this Forum function to locate previous discussions. Here are three:

Very easy if you've configured it correctly, which is pretty easy. The only hiccup is if the hotel configuration somehow doesn't play nice--this can result sometimes if you have to put in access codes and such.

That said, I've used my Airport Express in a variety of hotels and it's always worked.

thanks
