How do I share an ethernet connection via wifi on Windows 8?


I have a Windows 8 laptop that is connected to a router via Ethernet. I want to make the laptop act like a wireless router via wifi so that other devices could connect to the computer using wifi and gain access to its Ethernet internet connection.


How do I do something like this?



Answer



The short of it... from Redmondpie comes an article on setting up your Windows 8 computer as a wireless hotspot. Essentially it tells you to use one of two apps... Connecfity Hotspot and WiFi Hotspot Creator


Do you need to read the article? Nope. Are the Apps a quick and easy way to do this? Yep. So, can it be done? Yep.
