Create a WiFi hotspot with ease featuring a wide array of settings for connection sharing as well as connection security with support fro WEP and WPA2
The Connectify Hotspot application will turn your laptop into a WiFi Hotspot to share the Internet with friends, co-workers, and mobile devices.
Connectify Hotspot is a handy tool that can be accessed directly from the system tray. Connectify is an easy-to-use and reliable software router that makes use of your Wi-Fi card to share your Internet connection.
On the other hand, Connectify Dispatch will help you quickly and easily combine all your PCs Internet connections for blazing speeds. Dispatch is particularly well-suited for BitTorrent and web pages - any download that naturally involves multiple files.
While monolithic streams like Netflix can’t be split across connections, Dispatch will assign them to the fastest connection - and route other requests to secondary connections.
With Dispatch's metered connections you can avoid costly overages by assigning bandwidth caps to your expensive 3G and 4G connections. In addition by setting their Priority level to Backup, Dispatch will only route traffic through them if your Primary connections fail.
