1.

Using Windows' Command Prompt, you can create a virtual network and share it
to provide internet access to other devices:
Launch a Command Prompt with Administrator privileges and enter the
following command:
netshwlansethostednetworkmode=allowssid=MarkWilsonkey=Lifehacker

Change the SSID value to choose a different name if you want, and use
"key" to set a password. This will create a virtual network adapter.
2. Start the new virtual adapter by running the following command:
netshwlanstarthostednetwork

3. Go to the Control Panel and open up the Network and Sharing Center. You
should see your new virtual adapter listed there (as shown in the screenshot
above). Click the "Local Area Connection" link (or whatever shows up next to
"Connections").
4. Click the Properties button in the window that appears.
5. Head to the Sharing tab and then check the "Allow other network users to
connect through this computer's Internet connection" box.
6. Use the drop down menu to select the virtual network adaptor you've created.
7. Click OK followed by Close.
You should now be able to connect other devices to the network you created and enjoy a
shared internet connection.
