Hotel internet hookup

I'm in a hotel trying to connect my roku espress to the internet. But where I am staying you have to go to a website to login to the internet with a username and password. How do I get my roku to bring up that website to login?

Re: Hotel internet hookup

Many hotels, dorms, etc, are set up with a wifi system that you connect to by logging in on a web page via an internet web browser.

The Roku has no web browser. In order to log the Roku into the net's web page, you use the browser in a wifi-equipped computer or mobile device and set it up to work through the Roku. You do this by connecting your computer or mobile device to the Roku via a wifi-direct connection. When you then log into the system's web page while connecting through the Roku it establishes the Roku's connection.

This Roku page explains the process: https://support.roku.com/article/215058118
