Adewasco2k@This will show you how to easily create wireless hotspot on your computer to share internet with other computers, iPhones, iPads, Android and even use it to PING on Blackberry without BIS etc by creating a wireless hotspot on your computer. Now people own many devices which are nothing without internet connections and subscribing to them all is not economical.....

oche_ejemb: On Windows, you can set up an adhoc network, is slightly more complex but at least you dont have to download any third party software you dont fully know.

how do you do that?

Please is there any app or software one can get that enables you have WiFi on your phone where there is no internet data on your phone?My girl friend use to have one on her phone but after she formatted her phone she lost it and can't remember the name if not she would have redownloaded it.

Re: How To Create A Wireless Hotspot On A Computer by doofanc: 4:45pm On Dec 08, 2013

Androids and virtually all other mobile phone operating systems can't see adhoc networks. Infact it's just Ipad I know that sees them

Now people own many devices which are nothing without internet connections and subscribing to them all is not economical.

Personally I didn’t know Blackberry devices can ping without BIS before now but yes, I do ping on my blackberry 9930 using wireless connection from my computer see picture below for proof. The number of devices that can be connected is unlimited also, so you can connect your friend’s laptops, connect your iPhone, iPad, Androids all sharing the same internet.

Trust me they are many software that can achieve this, most of them are not free like the popular Connectify but this method by using Virtual Router Manager is the easiest I have come across and is totally free.

1. Download Virtual Router Manager from here http://virtualrouter.codeplex.com/releases/view/58218 just 1.3MB
2. Install it on your Windows Computer
3. Open the Virtual Router Manager and type in a Network Name (SSID) , also type in a password, (note it must be up to 8 characters), select the internet connection you want to share
4. Now click start Virtual Router Manger
5. Now you can turn-on wireless on your devices and you will see the network name, connect to it with the password you have created and you will have internet access from the computer.

If when you clicked start Virtual Router Manager you get a message that says “group or resource is not in the correct state to perform the requested operation” then all you have to do is on your start menu search CMD and right-click on it and run as administrator when a DOS environment comes up just type in this “netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow” without the quote and hit enter, now it should work fine.

Sorry to disappoint, but most devices except laptops require an access point which ad-hocs don't have.
