You must have been irked by the airport wireless in ABQ then. I couldn't figure out why my ssh connection was failing until I checked the DNS and relized that even after clicking "free access" button in a web browser they returned 192.168.1.1 for almost every name requested. :(
I will trade your ABQ wireless for almost anything that uses Nomadix's hotspot product .. the one that has a login page on http://1.1.1.1 - even more broken dns jail, returns 0.0.0.0 if I remember correctly for random queries till their upstream dns resolver actually decides to go update its cache. Probably because I have a v6 aware resolver + some of the hosts I accessed were dual v4/v6 or something, not sure. I got a really well filled /etc/hosts file for trips through paris airport (where the paris airport hilton charges 25 EUR a day for wifi, and it is 9 EUR a hour at the airport, ugh) srs
