There are now many wifi only android devices that do not have mobile wireless. Yes, almost everyone has a wireless modem at home for their broadband connection. there are free or guest wifi connections in many places. But sometimes only wired connections are available, such as at my office that I do not have a wifi one that I want to use. I do have wired internet connection and two wifi adapters.
At home my wifi only devices (Google Nexus 7) easily connects to my wifi router. I have a rooted S3 with a working native wifi hotspot to which my Nexus connects
It seems easier to share a wifi internet connection with another wifi device, but not so easy to share an ethernet connection by bridging to a wifi hotspot.
I do not understand why Win 8.1 does not have a GUI for setting up hostednetwork. Running command prompts is a PITA.
Does anyone know of a program that will easily bridge and share an ethernet connection to a wifi device and set up a hotspot for the wifi device?
