Share Internet Connection with Your Phone

Share Internet Connection with Your Phone

There are three steps involved in creating an AdHoc network: creating your network base, enabling LAN sharing, and connecting your devices to your network. 

Creating an AdHoc Network

Creating an AdHoc network (WLAN) will allow you to exchange files, share printers, or share internet access. 

The first step in creating your AdHoc network is to go to your Network and Sharing Center (Start > Network > Network and Sharing Center). Click on the Manage Wireless Networks button located in the left bar. Then click on Add

In the window that opens, select Create Network AdHoc, followed by Next. Choose a Network Name. This will be the SSID of the network you are connecting to your device. 

In the Security Type select No authentication (Open). Finally, select Save this network, and click on Next

Let the utility work. If it asks you to share your connection, you should accept the request and proceed directly to Step 3. Otherwise, proceed to Step 2. 

LAN Sharing


Now, we are going to instruct Windows to allow LAN sharing. This will allow your computer to access the connection from your device. 

Go back to the Network and Sharing Center(Start> Network> Network and Sharing Center). On the left-hand side, click on Change Settings Map

Right-click on Local Area Connection and select Properties. Then, go to the Sharingtab. 

Check Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection, followed by OK

Connecting to an AdHoc Network

It is now time to ask the PC to connect to the AdHoc network. 

Head to the Network and Sharing Centerone last time, and click on Connect or Disconnect

In the window that opens, click on the network name you created, and click Connect

Go into the application settings of your iPhone, iPod, or iPad and tap on WiFi. Make sure that your WiFi is enabled, and tap on the network name that you chose in step 1. 

Once connected, test your internet connection by simply opening an internet browser application.
