Hosting Network Settings in Win8 System

There is a built-in network in the network share in the win8 system, but it needs to be set. But how to set it up! Now let's take a look at the specific operation!

The Windows 8 system, like the Windows 7 system, has a built-in network sharing method. Here's a look at how to set it up:

1. Check if the computer supports network sharing

At the command prompt (open the way to see the article at the end), type: netsh wlan show drivers, then press Enter.

Find the "supported bearer network" one, if the following is displayed as "is", congratulations, your computer supports the bearer network to share, otherwise, think about it!

2. Set the username and password for the shared network

At the command prompt, type: netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=WifiName key=WifiPasswd Enter

Ssid sets the Wifi name, key is the password item

After the carriage return, it will display

3. Start the bearer network

Enter at the command prompt; netsh wlan start Hostednetwork

Enter

4. Shut down the bearer network

At the command prompt, type: netsh wlan stop hostednetwork

Enter

5. Possible problems

In the third step, it may fail to start. The solution is as follows:

Right-click on my computer--Management--Device Manager-- Network adapter, check if there is a yellow logo in front of the Microsoft kernel debug network adapter, if any, that you have not started, right-click - start, and then retry step 3 to start successfully. If it still doesn't work, you can try to update the NIC driver (not tried)

6. Win 8 Command prompt startup method

Micro software+R: Enter cmd, Enter

In the lower left corner of the desktop, right-click and in the shortcut menu that appears, select "Command Prompt"/"Command Prompt (Admin)"
