Description

The Windows operating system's Wifi hosted network feature enables users to create a wifi hotspot, granting any wifi-enabled device access to the network and internet connection of the computer. However, users have encountered issues with HostedNetworkStarter crashing when attempting to initiate the hosted network, specifically encountering a failure within hnetcfg.dll as it tries to disable existing Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) settings to configure ICS for the new hotspot. It remains uncertain whether the issue stems from a misconfiguration by HostedNetworkStarter or if it is a bug within the ICS component of Windows 10. Notably, several users have reported that this problem emerged following the installation of the Windows 10 Anniversary Update, suggesting a potential link between the update and the crashing issue. This situation leaves users seeking reliable solutions for establishing a functional wifi hotspot without disruption.

Description

Nearby individuals can connect to the Internet via your shared connection, making it a perfect choice for creating a temporary Access Point in locations like hotel rooms, meeting spaces, or your own residence. When user authentication is enabled, customers are directed to a login page where they must either enter an access password or agree to the Terms of Use prior to gaining Internet access. The MyPublicWiFi-Firewall offers the ability to limit user access to certain servers, allowing you to restrict specific online services, such as file sharing applications or social media sites like Facebook. This software transforms your PC into an Adblock Router, effectively conserving bandwidth and safeguarding user privacy. Additionally, the Bandwidth Manager feature enables you to regulate the upload and download speeds for clients connected to your hotspot. MyPublicWiFi also provides the capability to log and monitor all URLs visited by users on your virtual WiFi hotspot, ensuring you have comprehensive oversight of Internet activity. This extensive control can be particularly beneficial for managing high-traffic environments or maintaining security standards.
