If you have a Windows 7 or later machine, you can host your very own WIFI HOTSPOT
without paying incurred service provider fees using the built in Windows NETSH networking commands.
NETSH provides windows users with a host of network functionality that can be implemented using the windows shell.
Here’s how:
Open your windows command prompt by typing “CMD” from your “Start” “Run” menu.
Type “NETSH help” to display the available NETSH commands list
Type “NETSH” to display the available NETSH WLAN commands list (We’ll be working here)
Type “NETSH WLAN SET HOSTED NETWORK SSID = your network name” to set the name
of your wifi hotspot.
Type “NETSH WLAN SET HOSTED NETWORK KEY= your network password” to set the password for your wifi hotspot.
Viola... HotSpot Served!
For The Curious
