Got a Windows 7 PC or one running Windows Server 2008 R2? Then you've got a WiFi hotspot, or at least you can have if you install the Connectify software that is currently available for free in beta form.



Making use of some fresh but not officially used code in Windows 7, Connectify enables people to share the internet connection on a PC via WiFi with other PCs and devices, without additional hardware. The signal shared is encrypted with WPA2-Personal (AES) encryption so the safety of your data is covered too.
