Hello to all deck users, I wanted to ask a question here: I’m about to go abroad for work and I’ve heard reports that the deck doesn’t like to work on WiFi networks other than the one it was initially configured for, which I find strange, as I replicated my home internet with the same user and it went through my cell phone’s hotspot.

But when I arrive at my hotel, will I have problems connecting to an unknown WiFi even with the passwords given by the hotel?

Thanks

Nah, the deck will pop up the portal automatically in most cases.

I have never had an issue with alternate wifi networks, traveling or not.

Good to know! :)
