Share internet connection in windows 7 with built in WiFi

9:27 PM Article by Unknown

Hey, do you want to share your internet connection with colleagues or friends without wireless router, lan wire etc ? Then here is the perfect solution for windows 7 users. Because windows 7′s ICS technology is better than any OS in the market. You can easily turn your wifi enabled laptop/pc into professional wireless router. Do you think I’m joking :-p ? Well, the process is tested and it’s working 100%. Just follow up the process mentioned below :

1. Go to Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center

 2. Under Change your networking settings, click Set up a new connection or network

3. Select Set up a wireless ad hoc (computer-to-computer) network

4. Enter your Network name, and enter a Security key if wanted

5. Check the box for Save this network and click Turn on Internet connection sharing on next page

Your internet connection is now ready for sharing. Tell your friends to connect with your wifi network via their wifi. It’ll work 100% if you didn’t mess around with your internet connections before. Sometimes, your friends can be able to connect your wifi but only local connection without internet access. It’s because you didn’t turn on the internet sharing function mentioned in point 5. For some technical reasons the internet sharing activating window doesn’t appear for the first time. If this happens follow the instruction given below (don’t do it unless you face such problem):

1) Open Network and Sharing Center

2) Go to Change Adapter Settings

3) Find the adapter for the default internet connection (it was a PPPOE in my case)

4) Right click on that -> Cancel as Default Connection

5) Right click -> Properties -> Sharing tab

6) Uncheck "Allow other network users to connect ..." if it is not

7) Setup the ad-hoc as cocaine explained in the previous post, the Turn on Internet connection sharing should appear

Oh, I almost forgot to tell that Internet Sharing won’t work unless you’ve a wifi enabled laptop. PCs don’t have any built in wifi. But don’t worry, you can buy a portable wifi for PC from your nearest shop.
So, then I hope you’ll not face any problem after my detail tutorial. But don’t worry, I’m not running away ! If you still face any problem, don’t hesitate to ask...just by leaving comments.
