The network service in my hotel room is really weird. I can ping any host I like, but I can't initiate a TCP connection until I've signed through their little web page, and it makes me do that again once each day. This is very confusing; I wonder why ssh hangs, ping the destination host, get an echo, and assume the problem is at the far end.

If my roommate hadn't already paid for several days (at $10/day), I would momentarily contemplate tunneling all my traffic over ICMP through a cooperative host back in Orlando.
