WiFi hotspot software
is always the best option to share our data connections with our other devices like other laptops, smartphone, tablets, etc.
Some of its importance includes:
1. maybe you have an unlimited internet plan on your modem and you want to share it with your other devices instead of wasting extra money on internet plans for your other devices.
2. using my college as an example, certain WiFi networks don’t actually connect on smartphone and other java phones from certain locations, so we devised a means of doing that. We connect our PC, and then share the connection with the phone using some WiFi hotspot softwares.
Having outlined these two importance, I will then go ahead and list some of these
WiFi hotspot softwares that can be used on our PC to share its internet connection with other devices.
