Hotel ready
-----------
New in this version is a feature to auto detect when you are joined to a WiFi hotspot but that there are further signin steps needed, such as entering a hotel room number or a token off your train ticket.
Once detected, the icon bar icon changes to show a PIN graphic and Select clicks on the icon will launch a browser to redirect to the signin page.
Perfect for overnight stays in hotels when travelling with a Pi in your
pocket!
Feltham ready
-------------
Elesar will be at the forthcoming ROUGOL show at St Giles Hotel, Feltham, on 30th October 2021

We'll have a selection of products available to buy (contactlessly) on the
day, and live demos of our software titles such as TextEase Studio - marking the "in person" debut of version 5.99 released in August

Click & collect
---------------
If there's something unusual you'd like to buy or think we might run out of, you can pre-order via our website. Simply select "Pick up at Feltham" at the shipping step for free click and collect.
Note: Some hotspots don't use page redirection, so the icon bar icon will
remain as the usual signal strength display.
Some hotspots make extensive use of Javascript and will require a
web browser able to render such pages.
