MAKE SURE YOU READ THE LAST PARAGRAPH!!
Warning! this is my first blog and I'm so bored
Imagine yourself at your room at home or in a hotel. Your WIFI connection strength is giving you 3 or 4 bars on the laptop but you're dying to make your phone connected to the network. You even tried holding your phone with two fingers on a side, holding it upside down or even left it on an object and tried watching it seeing it connecting and disconnecting. Now we have to stop all this none sense. We do have a good reception on the laptop, why don't we just connect through it. Thanks to the new virtual instances of wireless network cards, and a little help of windows you will be able to create a wifi access point out of your laptop.
At first you will need to run the command prompt as and administrator. In windows 7 and 8 just press the windows key on the keyboard and start typing the magical word "cmd". A shortcut to the application will appear, you just need to right click on it and choose "run as administrator". Now the command screen will popup "THE BLACK SCREEN!!". Type the following commands into this screen:
After that you will need to go the the network and sharing center and choose "change adapter settings" on the side bar "another way of doing it is just opening any explorer window like document and typing "network connections" on the address bar".
Press OK and that will solve your issues in the room.
Now let's expand our vision, let's assume that you are with a group of 5 or 6. You are heading to a paid wifi hot spot. Based on whatever they gave you each or only some of you a 1 hour voucher only. You are planning to stay for at least 2 or 3 hours. The solution is just enter the voucher on the host machine and let the rest connect to it using the previous steps.
Enjoy the boredom!
