hotel wlan rant

Seriously…. who develops these shitty systems for hotel wifi ?
I know , I know , it’s been said a thousand times…
But I’m sitting here in Austria in a fucking hotel and guess what.

  • No wifi encryption
  • password security is a joke
  • They redirect all sites to the login site
  • I get a thousand certificate warnings
  • need 10 minutes to think of a site which doesn’t default to https
  • finally -> login
  • I wan’t to establish a ssl vpn tunnel
  • ALL FUCKING PORTS BLOCKED !
  • can’t connect with openvpn
  • can’t connect with IRC
  • can’t access my NAS
  • can’t connect with SSH
  • Search for free https tunneling solutions
  • give up

at least it’s fucking slow as fuck and the connection is terrible,
so we got that going … *sigh*

reminder to myself : run openvpn on 443
