I have bought a new IPAD2 but I only have a 3G wireless network card at home. I have been struggling for a long time and don't want to install a wired network. But what should I do if I need an Ipad to access the Internet? Windows 7 has a share wifi function. The test is successful and shared with you.
Enable the hide function of windows 7: Virtual WiFi and SoftAP (Virtual Wireless AP)
1. Run the command prompt as an administrator:
Shortcut Key win + R → Enter cmd → press ENTER
2. Enable and set the virtual WiFi NIC:
Run the command: netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode = allow ssid = soho key = sohowifihack
This command has three parameters: mode: whether to enable the virtual Wi-Fi network card. If it is changed to disallow, It is disabled.
Ssid: the name of the wireless network. It is best to use English (soho ).
Key: wireless network password, which consists of more than eight characters (sohowifihack ).
The preceding three parameters can be used independently. For example, you can disable a virtual Wi-Fi network card by using mode = disallow only.
After it is enabled, a wireless connection 2 with the network Adapter "Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter" will be displayed in the network connection. For convenience, rename it Virtual WiFi. If no, you only need to update the wireless NIC Driver.
3. Set Internet Connection Sharing:
In the "Network Connection" window, right-click a network connection that has been connected to the Internet, select "properties"> "share", and check "allow others... connection (N) "and select" virtual WiFi ".
After confirmation, "shared" will appear next to the shared Nic icon, indicating that "Broadband connection" has been shared to "virtual WiFi ".
4. Enable the wireless network:
Continue to run: netsh wlan start hostednetwork in the command prompt
(Change start to stop to disable the wireless network. To enable the wireless network after it is started, you only need to run this command again)
Now, the Red Cross of virtual WiFi disappears, the Wi-Fi base station has been set up, and the host has been set up. Mobile phones and other sub-computers with WiFi modules such as Ipad and Iphone can find the wireless network soho and enter the password sohowifihack to share the Internet!
Appendix: Command for displaying Wireless Network Information: netsh wlan show hostednetwork
The WLAN emitted by a virtual Wireless AP is based on 802.11g and the bandwidth is 54 Mbps.
