Note:Change “SSIDName” to what ever you wanna call your Access point
& “YourPassword” to your personalized password. - Then type the following line to start the Access Point:
netsh wlan start hostednetwork - Common Troubleshooting tip:
Stop & restart fix’s it usually. To stop use this command:netsh wlan Stop hostednetwork
Option B:
- Download this File.
- Unzip it.
- “Right-click” on “Wireless Access Point.bat” then choose “Run As Administrator”
- Current SSID Name is: “MySSID”

After Running either of the options you can search with your mobile and the access point will appear as any other wireless routers.
