2. Try connecting to Roku xyz network (on phone) and without being promoted to the roku starts searching for networks before you can sign into "roku xyz network" (on the phone) and like others say is a "race against the clock to get connected on phone"

I encounters that issue before, and discovered it was the phone that was the problem. When I travel, I have my government phone and iPad, along with my Windows 10 work laptop. I found that often both the phone and the iPad would not give me enough time to reach the hotel's login screen. But using my Windows laptop worked every time. I realize that might not be an option, if you're not traveling with multiple devices. I agree that Roku needs to revamp their hotel connection function. 

Exactly! This makes me want to return my Roku for a Firestick

For Danny with Roku, please follow these steps.

1. Grab a streaming stick plus

2. Go to your local Marriott branded hotel. Stay there for a night.

3. Try to connect to the hotel wifi with the streaming stick plus. Spend the entire stay trying to connect the Roku.

4. Report your findings to your peers At Roku

5. Come back here with a real solution from Roku.

how do you call a service worker , what is the number because all that pulls up is some robotic chats 

This is the most infuriating thing about Roku. I have it mainly to travel with and when I go to the same hotel twice it won’t let me authenticate the room number etc again on my second stay. I’ve tried resetting network settings and it still attempts to connect, gives me the option to say “I am at a hotel or college dorm”, and then after 5 seconds it tries to connect again. Then gives me the option again and 5 seconds later it attempts to connect again. So far the only solution is a factory reset but since I travel a lot, it’s so dumb to have to do that each time. I should have the option to forget a network and start over. A network setting reset should also fix the issue but it doesn’t. I don’t even have time to connect to the Roku for the authentication page to pop up. This is like the 5th time it’s happened to me and I’m so close to buying a different brand device to take on the road with me. 

I currently have a roku TV that I've had for several months. I am a full time RV person. The location I'm at now I paid for Internet, but I cannot connect to dorm/hotel connection.

I have tried hooking up through my phone's Wi-Fi hotspot and had no problem, currently using it to watch my hulu.

But the fact being that I paid for Wi-Fi and I should be able to connect my roku TLC TV to it, unfortunately I cannot get it to connect to room/dorm I've tried this with my phone in with my tablet.
