This process of connection can be helpful in the sense that, many don't know about computer wifi hotspot and know you are knowing the it, you can connect or set it up for people and on any windows devices to connect to one another if the sim that has internet is the only surviving sim.
1. Press Win+X and select "Command Prompt (Admin)." This will start the Command Prompt with administrator access. You may be prompted to continue depending on your computer's security settings.
You'll need to be logged in with an administrator account or know the administrator password in order to perform these steps.
2. Check to see if you have a compatible wireless adapter installed. You'll need a wireless adapter in order to create a wireless network for your mobile device to connect to. Virtually all Windows laptops have a wireless adapter installed, but many desktop computers do not come with one. Type the following command to check if you have an adapter installed, and if it's compatible:[1]
netsh wlan show drivers
If you get a message saying The Wireless AutoConfig Service is not running, your computer does not have a wireless adapter installed. You can try a USB wireless adapter, or see Install a PCI Card for instructions on installing a network card.
3. Find the .Hosted network supported line. You may need to scroll back up to find it. If it says Yes, your wireless adapter supports broadcasting a wireless network. Keep the Command Prompt window open for now.
Not all wireless adapters support hosting their own network. If your computer does not have a compatible adapter, you can try a USB adapter instead.
4. Ensure your computer is connected to the network via Ethernet. This method requires that the computer you are turning into a wireless hotspot has an Ethernet cable connection to the network. You'll be sharing this connection with the devices that connect to your computer via wireless.[2]
Press ⊞ Win+X and select "Network Connections" to load the Network Connections window. Look for an "Ethernet" connection in the list. It will have an Ethernet cable icon underneath the network icon.
If you don't have an Ethernet connection (i.e. you're using a Surface tablet), see the section below on using Connectify, which can use your wireless adapter to both receive internet and broadcast it to connected devices.
5. Enter the command to create the network. Return to the Command Prompt window, or open it in administration mode again if you closed it. Type the following command:[3]
netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=name key=password
Replace name with the name you want your network to appear as.
Replace password with the password you want to use to protect your network. It must be at least eight characters long.
6. Start the new hotspot. Enter the following command to start your new hotspot:
netsh wlan start hostednetwork
7. Return to the Network Connections window. You can find it in the ⊞ Win+X menu if you closed it earlier.
8. Right-click your Ethernet connection and select "Properties." This will open a new window with details on your Ethernet adapter.
9. Check the first box in the "Sharing" tab. It reads "Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection." A new menu will appear under the box.
10. Select your newly created network from the menu. You'll need to select the network that you just created, as this is the network that you'll be sharing your internet connection with. It could be labeled "Local Area Connection #," "Wi-Fi" or "Microsoft Hosted Virtual Adapter. [4]"
11. Click "OK" to save your changes. Mobile devices that connect to your network will now be able to access the internet using your computer's connection.
12. Connect your mobile device to the new network. Now that the new network is set up, you can find the wireless network on your mobile device and try connecting to it:
Android - Open the Settings app and tap "Wi-Fi." Tap your newly-created network in the list of available networks, then enter the password you made when prompted.
iOS - Open the Settings app on your Home screen. Tap "Wi-Fi" and then find your new network in the "Choose a Network" list. Tap it and then enter the password when prompted.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
This only on windows PC.
Understand any pop up command line,before you apply to it, to avoid computer wifi misbehavoiur.
