Share PC internet with android phone through wifi without using any software.
Normally Tethering means sharing your mobile data connection to some other devices like laptop or PC. But you must have thought of using your broadband internet connection in your wifi enabled device where no hard wired LAN connection is not possible.
I know you are searching for only those steps to get this done. But let me discuss something before telling, that will help you to comprehend the same.
I think Android devices have been previously configured for peer to peer connection (connecting to another android device) and to share data connection from a wifi hotspot where many android or other wifi enabled devices connects to the shared router.
You can find both these type of connections in you android device in :-
(a) Settings>Wireless and network>Wi-Fi Direct settings -> This is equivalent to peer to peer network.To me wi-fi peer-to-peer implementations by creating adhoc connections is same as Wi-Fi Direct. You can opt for this type of network only to build a small, all-wireless LAN quickly and spend the minimum amount of money on equipment. Like sending songs or anything else from one device to other android devices. But sharing internet connection of your PC ,using this is not suitable according to me because what I found, Ad-hoc networks cannot bridge to wired LANs or to the Internet easily without a gateway or bridge.
(b) Settings>Wireless and network>Wi-Fi Settings -> This one is for accessing a wifi hotspot through an access point.This one is more suitable for sharing Internet Connection of your PC to one or more devices without purchasing a wifi router. ;-)
Now I will tell you step by step how to share your PC internet.
1. Go to start button of win 7 or vista and type 'cmd', then right click on the 'cmd.exe' application and click on 'Run as Administrator' option.
