    Hotspot internet sharing


    I have my PC connected to internet via ethernet cable and I want to share internet via wifi adapter to my laptop. The thing is if I do this with the hotspot my laptop ends up on a different subnet. Is there a way to share wifi and keep my laptop and PC on the same network?

    :)

    PPPOE WAN internet sharing as wifi hotspot

    Hi,

    You may share your internet connection with other devices over Wi-Fi by turning your laptop into a mobile hotspot.

    Here's how:

    • Press the Windows + I keys from the keyboard to launch Settings.
    • Go to Network & Internet, then Mobile Hotspot.
    • Choose the internet connection you want to share from the Share my Internet connection
      from field.
    • Select Edit, enter a new network name and password, then click
      Save.
    • Turn ON the Share my Internet connection with other devices option.

    After following the steps above, you may now connect your other devices by going to the Wi-Fi settings on that device, finding and selecting the network name, and entering the password.

    Let us know how it works.

    Regards.

    Hotspot internet sharing

    Problems sharing internet with hotspot


    I've created hosted network with this command
    NETSH WLAN set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=Your_SSID key=Your_Passphrase
    then activated it like this
    netsh wlan start hostednetwork


    Now i am supposed to share Ethernet internet with this hotspot interface, but there is no drop-down menu in sharing option. There is just text field which can't be edited (or drop-down with one item, but no arrow) and it says Wi-Fi (thats the name of my wireless adapter). But I don't want to share internet with Wifi adapter, I need hotspot adapter.

    Any idea how to make the hotspot adapter show-up in the drop-down so I can select it?
