Why to pay extra for the Mobile internet services when you already have the home braodband. If you consider your per month $20.00 for your mobile internet that accounts for $240.00 a year and in 5 years that comes to $1200.00 Why should you just waste such huge money on something just to check the notifications on Facebook or the Tweet from your favs. Also if you have noticed that even you set up a Ad Hoc connection from your laptop that is not being recognised by your phone.But never to worry about i have come up with an idea to solve your problem. I am laying the path for you how to connect your home broadband connection on your internet to your phone without any wireless router. Yes without any router, without any additional software and with out any much hiccup. All you have to do is a series of steps and you are done.
Steps in Windows 7:
Step-1: Open "RUN" (in admin mode)

Then right click it and select "Run as Administrator" option.
Step-2: Start your Wireless Network by enabling the Network Switch located in your Laptop. My switch for Dell Inspiron is on the right side( push it forward)
Step-3: Copy paste the below command to create an access ID for your device
"netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=phonewifi key=Kareena123 keyusage=persistent"
Note: You can set any name to this access point by replacing 'funkywifi' with your required
name.Similarly you can give any password/security key instead of 'password123' that must
be a string with 8 to 63 ASCII characters.
If keyUsage is specified as 'persistent', the security key will be saved and used when the hosted network is started again in future. Otherwise it will be used only when the current or
next time the hosted network is started. Once the hosted network is stopped, the temporary
security key will be deleted from the system. If keyUsage is not specified, it is persistent by
default.If you want to keep the password temporary replace 'persistent' with temporary'.
3. Once the command executes successfully. You can check your newly created hosted
network configuration by typing the following on the same command prompt window:
netsh wlan show hostednetwork
Now that you have configured the access point network, follow step no. 6 to share your
broadband or lan connection.
4. Now that you have configured a hosted network named 'funkywifi', you need to start it by
the following command on the same command window:
netsh wlan start hostednetwork
Now you can check the same by opening either 'Network and sharing center' or by clicking
connection button in right corner of taskbar.
5. To stop the connection type the following :
netsh wlan stop hostednetwork
[Remember everytime you do this , all these commands except the commands in step 3
and 5 needs administrative privilages.Hence you should follow the first step for doing the
same.]
If you don't like to type all these lines every time you start your network, then skip steps
2,3,4 & 5. You can save the three commands as discussed in steps 2,4 and 5 in three
different batch files, which can do the same task if you run them as administrator.To do
this, type the command of my 2nd Step i.e, "netsh wlan set hostednetwork
mode=allow ssid=funkywifi key=password123 keyusage=persistent" in Notepad.exe
and save it as "sethostednetwork.BAT".
Similarly save "netsh wlan start hostednetwork" as start.BAT and "netsh wlan stop
hostednetwork" as 'stop.BAT".
Now to creat or configure a new connection you can right click on "sethostednetwork.BAT"
file icon and click on 'run as administrator'.
To start the connection right click on "start.BAT" file icon and click on 'run as administrator'.
To stop the connection right click on "stop.BAT" file icon and click on 'run as administrator'.
If you want to change username and password just right click on the
"sethostednetwork.BAT" file icon and click on edit option. After replacing the existing
username or password save it.
6. Now this is an important step without this you can't share your laptop internet. For doing
this go to 'Network and sharing center' and click on 'Change adapter settings'. If you find it
difficult to find it, just type 'Network and sharing center' as search phrase.
Identify your broadband connection or your PC internet connection (for me it is 'Local Ar
Connection') , right click and goto properties and then click onto sharing tab.Check t
"Internet Connection Sharing" button and select your home network connection from t
given options in the same tab for me it is "Wireless Network Connection 2".Now click ok a
you are done.
:P Not yet ! !
7. Once you can see your hosted network in 'Network and sharing center', go to
Settings>Wireless and network>Wi-Fi Settings in your android device , and tap on "Turn on
Wi-Fi" button. It will automatically detect your PC/Laptop wifi network. On clicking the same
connection in your mobile you only have to give the password and tap on 'connect' button.
Once connected you can use your PC/Laptop internet.
