Create a WiFi hotspot with ease featuring a wide array of settings for connection sharing as well as connection security with support fro WEP and WPA2
Setting up a wireless network is usually done using a dedicated router, but there is a specialized application, called Connectify, that can do that without needing the hardware device. This software can turn your wireless-capable computer into a virtual router, thus allowing you to use the same Internet connection on multiple devices.
The interface is definitely one of the aces up its sleeve, because everything is designed to make the whole process very easy to use, even by those uninitiated in creating and maintaining such wireless connections.
The configuration process can be done in a minute, as Connectify prompts you to choose the hotspot name, the password, the WiFi device to be used, the security mode and choose whether to enable Internet sharing or not.
You have full control over your wireless network all the time, so you will know exactly who is connected to your server. Among its advanced features, Connectify enables you to explore shared resources from the devices that are paired with your system.
We've tested the application on a Windows 7 laptop and everything worked quite smoothly and we had an Access Point up and running in a couple of minutes. Conveniently enough, the application does all the required tasks automatically, including the wireless card, firewall and Internet sharing configurations.
All in all, Connectify puts up a decent performance and, thanks to its solid feature pack, it can definitely be a solution for anyone who wants to share the Internet connection at work or at home.
The Connectify Hotspot application will turn your laptop into a WiFi Hotspot to share the Internet with friends, co-workers, and mobile devices.
Connectify Hotspot is a handy tool that can be accessed directly from the system tray. Connectify is an easy-to-use and reliable software router that makes use of your Wi-Fi card to share your Internet connection.
On the other hand, Connectify Dispatch will help you quickly and easily combine all your PCs Internet connections for blazing speeds. Dispatch is particularly well-suited for BitTorrent and web pages - any download that naturally involves multiple files.
While monolithic streams like Netflix can’t be split across connections, Dispatch will assign them to the fastest connection - and route other requests to secondary connections.
With Dispatch's metered connections you can avoid costly overages by assigning bandwidth caps to your expensive 3G and 4G connections. In addition by setting their Priority level to Backup, Dispatch will only route traffic through them if your Primary connections fail.
