Windows 10: Sharing Internet Connection FROM WiFi TO Ethernet

Hi,

I am trying to share an internet connection from a Windows 10 Laptop to a device that cannot access a Username/Password secured WiFi Network. However I cannot seem to stop the Ethernet Connection from automatically turning the WiFi off.

I have tried changing the priority through Powershell as best I can however all the online guides for this are pretty out of date and are created for older versions of the OS when this task was significantly easier.

Please help, it's annoying that a forced upgrade has removed functionality that I relied on.

:)

Hello Graham,

We regret the inconvenience and we also appreciate the time and effort you have put in to resolve the issue. Let me assist you.

Before we proceed further, let us know a few more details on the below questions.

• 
  What is the make and model of the laptop you are using?
  
• 
  Did you make any changes to the computer prior to the issue? Is it an abrupt issue?
  
• 
  Did you verify if the Internet connection Services is running?
  
• 
  Are you normally connect to internet even when the network sharing fails?
  
• 
  Do have any System Restore point set in Windows prior to the issue?
  

We also need which of the following cases of network sharing applies to your case:

1. One laptop using its Ethernet connection for Internet access and its WiFi adapter to broadcast.

2. One laptop that is connected to the Internet through a mobile USB modem and broadcasts the wireless network through its WiFi adapter.

As an initial recommendation, I suggest you to check if the following steps help to resolve the issue.

Step-1. Disable wi-fi adapter.

Step-2. Enable it again.

Step-3. Create wi-fi hot spot again.

Step-4. Now share network connection from where internet is connected to wi-fi hotspot adapter.

So I am trying to share a Wifi connection in... VISTA!

Okay, so I am trying to use Vista's built in ICS to share a wireless connection in Windows Vista...

The internet comes in via the wiFi card, and an ethernet cable link my PC to an XP machine. I am TRYING to get vista to be nice and share the WiFi connection with the XP machine, but each time I go into the properties of the wireless connection and choose the Sahe it, I get an error message "An error occure while Internet connection Sharing was being enabled." with no further details. Both PCs are set up to aquire their IPs automactically...

Any ideas as to what I might be doing wrong?

 

sharing ethernet connection of windows 10 laptop to android mobile via wifi

I'm having the same problem as you, I tried to follow the guide
http://www.techtolead.com/how-to-share-ethernet-connection-via-wifi-in-windows/2941/but that is for windows 8/8.1 so step 10 isn't possible as the drop down doesn't show up, where I am supposed to choose "local area connection"

Looking at Control Panel-> Internet and Sharing I can see two connections, the wifi I created though doesn't have access to internet while the Ethernet connection does.

So I'm stuck!

When searching with my phone for wifi to connect to it does show up and I can type in the selected key but after that nothing happens.

So, if anyone have an idea of what I'm doing wrong I would appreciate if you could point me in the right direction! =)

Tia!
