Have you ever tried to create Wi-Fi hotspot on your PC without any success? Today, I have come with a solution to the problem which is easy to implement by yourself.. Without much ado, let's get to the point
How to Create a WiFi Hotspot Using the Command Prompt
1- Open START . It's in the bottom-left corner of the screen. You can also press the ⊞ Win key to open Start.
2 - Type "cmd" into Start. Doing so will bring up the Command Prompt icon.
3 - Right-click Command Prompt. It's at the top of the page.
4 - Click Run as administrator . This option is in the right-click drop-down menu.
If you don't have the Run as administrator option, you can't create a Wi-Fi hotspot.
5 - Click Yes when prompted. Doing so will open Command Prompt.
6 - Type "NETSH WLAN show drivers" and press ↵ Enter . This command will display information to help you confirm that your computer can create a hotspot with Command Prompt.
7 - Look for "Yes" next to "Hosted network supported". If you see "Yes" here, your computer supports the Hosted Network feature, which is what allows you to create a Wi-Fi hotspot.
If you don't see "Yes" here, your computer can't create a wireless hotspot through Command Prompt.
8 - To create a hotspot, type "netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=yournetworkname key=yournetworkpassword" and hit Enter on your keyboard.
Remember, "ssid" refers to the WiFi hotspot's name while "key" is said network's password. You can also use the aforementioned command to change the hotspot's name and password.
9 - To get the hotspot up and running, type "netsh wlan start hostednetwork" Make sure your computer's WiFi adapter is also switched on, or the hotspot won't work at all.
Enjoy!!
