I found a loophole. So near the back of the TV there is an ethernet cord hooked up to the cable modem. There's a locking mechanism that locks it but you can use a pin to open it. just unplug it and hook it into your PS5. Connecting speed was 581mbps. Just make sure before you leave hook everything up the way you found it to avoid unnecessary fees. You're welcome 😊 🙏
Interesting... I'll be back there in a couple weeks. I'll give it a shot! I've switched from directly connecting my PS5 to Wi-Fi to now connecting my PS5 to my travel router so I can have the travel router on my OpenVPN so I can still use Hulu / Netflix away from home. If this ethernet cord is there, I should be able to hook it to my travel router and get the same benefits plus very fast speeds. Thanks!
My girlfriend and I sat here for hours trying to figure out how to connect the hotel wifi to the PS5 and we have did everything beside the last thing you said...Use your laptop into a mobile hotspot but make sure you connect to the hotel wifi. Thanks but due to the long process I have no high speed data left
Sorry man most of the video is just me proving that the usual techniques don't work. I still have people tell me they do, so I left that in there. I stay at that hotel once a month and I try it the "correct" way ever time to see if anything has changed and so far, no dice.
Yah the ping is pretty bad... I get 120+ pings. Playable but not great. It's great for anything else, though. I was at am Embassy Suites this weekend (also a Hilton hotel) and I retried connecting a few times from my PS5 and one of the times, it did actually give me the PS5 Wi-Fi config option, so I'm going to try that next week when I am back at the Hampton Inn in Fort Smith. I'm wondering if repeatedly trying will eventually work. I'll keep you posted.
Yeah that isn’t working for me… the mobile hotspot from my PC… I have Windows 11… 😔 it is saying “It can’t find the IP address within the time limit…” 😭
Interesting. I'm running Win 11 on my laptop as well. My first thought is make sure you've connected your laptop to the Hotel Wi-Fi first and verify it is actually connected before turning on the mobile hot spot. If that's not it, do you run a VPN as well? I know if my VPN is enabled, it can stop the Wi-Fi hot spot from starting up. I have to turn off PIA (Private Internet Access vpn), start the mobile hot spot, then connect to the hot spot from the PS5. Let me know if either of these help.
Cheapest option you're gonna be able to do is host a hot spot from your phone, if it allows it. Your other option, though more $, is to buy a travel router. Look up GL.iNet devices. They have some that are just routers and some that also include a VPN (for watching Hulu / Netflix away from home). They range from $30 to $120+.
The front desk at this Hampton has no knowledge of any number to call for WiFi setup. I do recall reading somewhere where I could give them my mac address, but haven't had the need since the Wi-Fi hot spot trick works so far. I may push again for a phone # in a couple weeks when I'm there again.
What takes a couple tries? At the Hampton I stay at, there is no way to connect to their Wi-Fi. No way to bring up the hotel log-in page. If you made it work, please send me the steps. I'd much rather do it through the PS5 than tethering to my laptop Wi-Fi.
While I know nothing about Macs, I did a quick google and found that it should have hot spot capabilities: Settings > Personal Hotspot. Maybe that'll be helpful.

You're amazing!
Yo s/o Arkansas I'm from there out in atl rappin
Problem is that internet it's too slow with laptop hotspot. It's difficult to play an online game.

Call the front desk and they will provide a number to call, the wifi services will manually connect your ps5

after messing with it for over an hour this worked for me. They had me on in less than a minute of talking to them. Thanks!
Bro I figured out how to connect to the wifi without that Hotspot method
How? I'm staying at Hampton Inn right now... I'll give your solution a try.
It may take a couple tries but it definitely works Apologies Apologies the late reply tho

Condense video SERIOUSLY! Obviously everyone is having the issue. Cut straight to the fix not the backstory and blah blah blah
Appreciate the feedback, but that's just not my style! :) I did add chapters, though, so you can just jump to 4:28 to see the actual solution.
Bro I don’t have windows I have Mac 🥲

Don’t got the equipment for the method 🫤
What do you mean?
