I'm in the lobby; it just worked.
Sitting in the BGP multihoming tutorial - First try had me associated with something with an SSID of STSN-conf, which (at least then) didn't do squat for getting out, although it happily gave me a 10.64/16 IP with DHCP.
Changing the SSID to nanog28 made life much happier...
Ah, STSN. I've had to hack dhclient because some of their servers (encountered often in Marriotts) emit options that are sufficiently invalid to cause dhclient to discard the packets. --Steve Bellovin, http://www.research.att.com/~smb (me) http://www.wilyhacker.com (2nd edition of "Firewalls" book)

My favorite was the STSN-in-room box crashing when presented with an NS RR query for the root. Took a while to figure out that it was crashing (and rebooting - 15-20 sec outage) everytime the nameserver on the laptop tried (unsuccessfully) to prime it's cache. lamont
