This was the reason why I bought a travel router/wifi repeater. You connect your corp laptop to the travel router then use your phone to log into the hotspot. Hotels are now using Meraki Air Marshal to block them on 2.4Ghz networks though

I wasn't familiar with Air Marshall. I understand it complicates your work-around, but I'd probably pay extra to stay in a hotel that cared enough about security to deploy it
No, i think it's a great feature. Definitely increases security. I don't believe it works on 5GHz networks though.
I've been reading up on it. Seems like it sends spoofed de-Auth packets to AP's it deems "rogue". That sounds highly illegal.
