      Hello Adrienne,
      yeah you’re right but when you have like 4 people staying with you, it’ll definitely come in handy. so instead of using third party application that might give you a blue screen, it’s best using this. Thanks for the comment Adrienne and do have a blessed weekend ;)

      Hello Srikanth
      you are right, it will be very useful for people who also surf the net using phones and netbooks. and one thing i like about sharing your network, you don have to buy multiple data for each device you have. Thanks for the comment srikanth and do have a lovely day ahead.

  8. Hi Babanature,

    Thanks for the great tutorial. I do share my wifi with my tenant and two of my neighbors. One is a college professor and the others are grad students. I live near Cornell University, so the grad students are abound. The more I can do for my fellow neighbors, the better. Of course, they are trusted “friends” so this is why I share.

    However, my mom lives in an active 55 and over community that has terrible internet connections. I will introduce this to their office. I think it will enhance the elders to use computers more often.

    Thanks for the great review, I’ll pass it on.
