Yes. There are many ways to do it but this may be the simplest: Use a USB
WiFi stick to have your spare PC connect to the hotel's WiFi network. Then
configure tcp/ip on that pc's wired ethernet adapter to connect with your
WiFi hub and connect to the WiFi hub with a UTP5 cable. If you need a
suitable hub you can borrow one from me. And as you say you have to run the
WinTest Telnet client properly configured on the spare PC.
