Share WiFi network with friends, co-workers, and mobile devices.
Connectify is a utility which converts your PC with Wireless LAN into a WiFi hotspot/access point or repeater. With an upgrade to the Pro version, it can also tap into mobile 3G/4G/5G networks.
Before installing Connectify, you should make sure you have a wireless card installed which is capable of turning your PC into a wireless router. Once you've set it up, you can create a network name and password.
To get started after installation and setup has completed, just press the "Start Hotspot" button. Along with simple networks, you can also setup sharing for files and folders, system devices and other things you may want to make available to others on the network.
