Step 1: Create Wi-Fi Hotspot
To create a Wi-Fi hotspot, you should have a wireless card installed on your laptop. Begin with turning on Wi-Fi on your PC or Laptop. You can find a dedicated Wi-Fi button in your laptop or click on Notification Center in Windows 10 and turn on Wi-Fi.
Open Command prompt from Start – Right click on Start button and select Command Prompt (Admin). This should open the command prompt in administrative mode. Or press Windows key + X and select Command Prompt (Admin).
In the command prompt Window, type the following command:
netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=MyWi-Fi key=yourpassword
In the above command “MyWi-Fi” is your Wi-Fi hotspot name and “yourpassword” will be your password. Change it according to your need.
Press enter to create the hosted network. If the hosted network is created successfully, you should see a success message.
Step 2: Start the Wi-Fi Hotspot
Now you need to start the hosted network, to do this type the following command:
netsh wlan start hostednetwork
This will start the hosted network in your PC and a connection named as MyWi-Fi (or whatever you named it) will appear in Network Connection list.
Next step is to share the existing internet connection with newly created Wi-Fi hotspot.
Go to Control Panel, Network and Internet and open Network Connection. Or copy and paste this “Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections” in Windows Explorer.
Right-click on your existing internet connection and select Properties. In my case, it was Mobile Broadband Connection 3.
Great internet men.
