How to make your laptop to wifi accesspoint.

Have you ever been in any of the following conditions:

1. Your laptop receives full wifi signal but other devices in your room are receiving week signal??(need a signal booster)

2. Your wifi router has MAC Filter applied and you can only connect your laptop to wifi ??( but want wifi connection to other device as well)).

3. You have lots of guests visiting and everyone wants the wifi password !!( unfortunately the same wifi password is your universal password and don't want to share password and don't want to reconfigure the router to change password)

Well whatever may be the condition, here is a bit of command line code that can turn your laptop to wifi router and you can even set your wifi password key !!!

So let's get it done:
NOTE: The following code is only for windows OS.(Windows 8 or later versions).

Step 1: Open the command window. (Press Windows button and R, then type cmd and press enter)

Step 2: Now enter the following line of code and press enter

netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid={nameofthessid} key={passphrase}

NOTE:
Replace {nameofthessid} with the SSID you want for this wifi.
Replace {passphrase} with the password you want to set for this new wifi.

Step 3: enter following command and press enter
