Your desktop computer needs to have a wireless internet card as WiFi is not a wired connection! Most desktops have a wired Ethernet port but will need a wireless card and antenna added to work in a hotel room!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This is not a WiFi Router. Think of it as an extension cord with additional power outlets. This allows you to connect four wired devices to your wired network and have faster connectivity with the Internet without any WiFi dropouts as well as cross-talk between all devices sharing that network such as hard drives, printers, and shared folders on networked computers.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.If I am understanding your situation, and needs correctly, no, this will not do what you need it to do. It sounds like you need to convert your source internet, (ethernet wall connection) into a Wi-Fi signal... This will not do that. If you have Wi-Fi capabilities, on your device, you don't need this switch, just get Wi-Fi from the hotel. Save your money for the switch. Hope this helps.
