Turn Win7 into a wireless router ipad Internet access is unlimited

Can your ipad not be online with only cable and laptop computers without a wireless router? Of course not! As long as you have a Win7 system installed in your laptop, you could make it a wireless router, allowing the ipad to surf the internet via a computer.

First, we find the command prompt in the Start menu, or type cmd Quick Search, right-click it, and select Run as Administrator.

Run the command prompt as an administrator

Enable the virtual wireless network card by running the following command at the command prompt:

Netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid= "win7 ap wow!" Key=wifimima

Input command enable virtual wireless network card

This line of command contains three parameters:

1.Mode: If the virtual WiFi card is enabled, the virtual NIC will disappear if it is disallow instead of disabled.

2.Ssid: Specify the name of the wireless network, preferably in English.

3.Key: Specifies the password for the wireless network. The password is used for secure WPA2 encryption of the wireless network, which can prevent the net from being rubbed well.

These three parameters can also be used separately when needed, such as you only want to disable the virtual WiFi card, so long as the use of the Mode=disallow command can be completed.

Next, the Internet Connection Sharing feature needs to be enabled in order for the ipad to use a network that the laptop already has connected to. Open the Network and Sharing Center window, click on the network you have connected to, and click Properties in the Network Status dialog box.

Open Network Connection

Open Connection Properties

Switch to the Sharing tab in the Properties dialog box, check "Allow other network users to connect through the Internet connection for this computer", and choose the network connection that allows them to share the Internet, which is our virtual WiFi card.

Enable Win7 Connection Sharing

Continue to run the following command at the command prompt:

Netsh wlan start hostednetwork

Enter command to open Win7 Virtual wireless network card

When you see the "Started hosting network" prompt, it means that the wireless network that we set up previously is turned on. Back to the network connection, you can see that the virtual wireless network card has opened the wireless networks we have specified.

Open Win7 Virtual Wireless network card

With all of the above settings, you can see the Win7 in the ipad's network connection, the name is the ssid= character "Win7 ap wow!" That comes after the first entry in the command prompt, and the password is the character "key=" after the Wifimima.
