Ever thought about taking your Roku player on vacation? Traveling with your Roku can be a snap with a little bit of forethought; we ll show you how you can bring your favorite black box along to some of your favorite destinations.
hotels blackpool If you are staying at a friend or family member’s home, you can usually rely on a stable Internet connection and the ability to plug into a router or connect over a wireless network.  You should let them know ahead of time that you will be using your Roku player –then tease them for not having one already.
Most hotels offer free Wi-Fi and it s just a matter of plugging in your Roku and connecting to the wireless network. There are some, however, that require authentication beyond a password–like your room number and name, etc. To share an Internet hotels blackpool connection, even with the authentication, I use my laptop and an older Netgear wireless travel router hotels blackpool (a travel router is just a smaller version of a typical router, and any brand should get the job done).
You will need to clone the MAC address from your computer to your router.  It sounds scary, but it s typically a check box that you select in the router settings menu, which tells the router to use the same address as your computer. As every router is different, you should refer to the proper documentation.
Internet usage at some hotels may require authentication, but once enabled, it’s usually good for a few hours. If you have trouble connecting, hotels blackpool contact the hotel s tech support team and ask them to bypass authentication by adding your MAC address to the system.
hotels blackpool I have really enjoyed traveling hotels blackpool with our Roku and would only add that if you re thinking of traveling internationally, check to see if your favorite services will be available outside the US. Some key services are limited to domestic use only.
This by far is the best way. After researching this topic and finding this little blurb in the comments hotels blackpool I figured I didn t have anything to lose by calling. Took the number from the log in screen (Day s Inn) that popped up on my laptop, told the guy (word for word from above) I wanted to bypass the authentication by adding my mac address and it was all set up in about 5 mins. He asked what type of device hotels blackpool it was and said nothing about not being allowed to connect a Roku. Thanks admiral and blujkts.
Hey! We take our Roku on pretty much every family trip. It s been our experience, though, that if you intend on connecting over WiFi DO NOT forget the remote. Without the remote there is no way to set up the WiFi connection. Not even with an iPhone or other network based remote app, because the Roku has to be connected to the network for the iPhone app to connect (obviously). So you have to connect via Ethernet. Then you can use the iPhone app, but if you try and then set up the WiFi, for some reason the Roku drops the Ethernet connection during the setup so you can t complete it. So at least with the Roku 1, no remote = no WiFi. Lesson learned on a recent trip to the beach.
tip if you are bringing a travel router give it the same SSID and password as your regular home router the Roku is normally connected too. Your Roku will then try connecting to that router by default and automatically enter the SSID s password. That way if you do forget your remote as I did recently your Roku will be connected and waiting to hear from your tablet hotels blackpool s Roku app!
You ve got to be kidding if you think lugging a laptop and router around with us and creating a ad-hoc wifi networks can be a snap with a little bit of forethought. Roku needs to include a web browser for this problem. hotels blackpool It doesn t have to be fully-featured. It doesn t even need JS or CSS support. Just throw some text up on the screen hotels blackpool and let us tab through the fields to enter the info.

How would this work? My son does not have cable so I thought of getting him a Roku. He only has internet on his phone as well. He is able to get on his laptop off of his phone wifi as well. Can the Roku work off just a phone? Please explain in detail since I am not so computer savvy lol! Thx!
If your son s phone is already setup to share it s internet wirelessly and not through a cable, you simply enter the phones WIFI share information (he would know this because it was used on the laptop), connect the Roku to a TV or monitor it should work.
Would just depend on the video IN connections hotels blackpool on the DVD player (if it even has video IN), matching the video OUT on the Roku. Mine has composite (yellow, hotels blackpool red, white RCA) on the Roku XD also has HDMI, but I don t know if that s for video IN or video OUT. If it doesn t match, you might be able to find a converter hotels blackpool online.
Hey Vince, Thanks for the tips I am a business man, and i travel a lot. I have neve thought about doing this for some strange hotels blackpool reason. I always have my laptop cables etc with me on EVERY trip, so next time you know what im going to bring!! great post thanks again
I ve been to at least one hotel that blocks whatever port Roku was streaming over. I called support about manually changing the port and it couldn hotels blackpool t be done. But this was a long time ago, maybe the situation is different now.
I guess people who travel only go from point A to point B and then hookup whatever. If you re really traveling , you might stay in a dozen places. Individual pain in the bulgebottom for each one is a bit much. Would be nice if to ease that pain, a step-by-step were provided for doing a quick on-the-fly setup. I have an XD at home, and could take it with me or even get another box for travel only. But if I arrive at a location and need to bang myself on the head anytime I want to do a setup, that s bum. Many WiFi hotspots are both free and non-password, but to say it s a piece of cake to get hooked up might be misleading. A step-by-step to follow for with and for without a password would be helpful. The whole point is to make life easier and more enjoyable, not more painful. LOL So here s the deal: I would be taking my Roku box with me and my video glasses and just kick back and watch Netflix on my glasses by the nearby pool perhaps or on their set if it has composite hookups, etc. (which it probably does). Netflix has an app for my iphone which can also hookup on the WiFi, but their app cannot transmit composite video for the 3GS phone, only the 4G series. So something to stream Netflix would be way cool like uh, a Roku box via a triple cable composite to single plug video such as my glasses hotels blackpool have. The Netflix will stream properly at home with that setup and my WiFi home network handy but at home, I m about big screen, etc.
I have tried to travel with my Roku many times and have never been able to get it to connect in a hotel room. I already bring a travel hotels blackpool router with me (TrendNet TEW-654-TR), but I always get a Code 014 error. Does anyone know if there s a travel router that reliably allows the Roku to connect in a hotel?

Can you describe the MAC cloning a little more? I m not that tech savvy and am a little hesitant about screwing up my router settings. Am I to just log on to my router via the PC and click the corresponding check box, and once I travel all is good to go? It can t be that easy..?
Some hotels have a device on the TV that does not allow access to the input ports, like every hotel on the Vegas strip, because they want you to use Pay-per-View. And most hotels now use universal remotes that don t have an input-select button. You can sometimes get around hotels blackpool that last point by using the manual buttons, but it depends on the brand of TV. But if you can t access the inputs, or switch the TV s input port, there is no sense in bringing the Roku.
Does the online virtual assistant belong to any organizations or associations? A lot of VA s will belong to an association. An example is the CVAC (Canadian Virtual Assistant Connection). Does the VA belong to any local Chamber of Commerce? Membership in associations and organizations provides legitimacy to a VA
