So in the WIN8 system has actually canceled the wireless temporary network (AD-HOC) function, this function of the single virtual WiFi still has, below we will explain how to create the WiFi hotspot share under WIN8.

Operation Steps:

The settings are as follows:

1. Right-click in the lower-left corner of the desktop, select command Script (admin);

2. Enable and set the virtual WiFi network card;

To run the command:

Netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow Ssid=cai key=12345678

This command has three parameters,

Mode: Enable virtual WiFi network card (disallow) and disable it instead.

SSID: Wireless network name, preferably in English (for example, in Cai).

Key: Wireless network password, more than eight characters (in 12345678 for example).

The above three parameters can be used alone,

For example, you can disable a virtual WiFi card directly by using only Mode=disallow.
