Using your TV in a dorm room
Hotels, school dorms, conference facilities, and similar locations
with public wireless Internet access often require you to interact
with a web page to authenticate your access. These types or
networks are called restricted public networks. When you select a
network of this type, the TV automatically detects that additional
information is needed and prompts you through using another
wireless device to supply the requested information.
About using your TV on a restricted public network
Here are some points to keep in mind when using your TV on a
restricted public network:
Using your Roku TV on a hotel or dorm room network requires
wireless availability and a network-connected smartphone,
tablet, or computer to authenticate access to your wireless
access point.
You will need your Roku TV remote.
Some content might be limited or unavailable if you try to
connect outside your home country due to geo-filtering.
