I don't have information specific to Ramada, but a general understanding of Internet in the hospitality industry.
Their internet hookups are specifically designed to disallow the use like yours: by an unattended device. This is an important hotel safety issue.
You have the following options:
1) Setup your laptop to do Internet Connection Sharing (like in Windows). There has to be some sort of interaction from the laptop every once in a while, some sort of viewing the hotel ads, accepting some sort of the agreement, logging in using some room-specific information, etc. This happens at least once per day, but I've seen it as often as every 2 hours.
2) Upgrade your room hookup to a higher level, called "professional", "enterprise", "VPN" or something similar. Expect significant upcharge in the daily room rate, unless you are under some sort of "premium", "executive", etc. frequent stayer plan.
3) Forget hotel hookup altogether and use a mobile telephony internet connection access point.
