[sanjay guha]

Hi All,

I need advice from you all Tech champions, how can i convert my Airtel 4G LTE dongle device which I normally use in my Laptop to a wifi device. Do I need to purchase any wifi router. Which works with Airtel 4g. Pls suggest.

mHotspot - Turn your laptop into wifi hotspot

there are some softwares which can turn your laptops into virtual routers. try the above one.

 

[Mr.cool]

i think you can use some routers which supports dongles. You just need to plug it in in the routers usb port and it will create wifi.
D-Link 2750 u has this feature.

he doesnt have wifi router yet. he can juse use laptops' wifi to creat a virtual wifi network, no need to buy a router separately.

 

[Mr.cool]

he told that network hosting is not supported so virtual wifi network will also not work.
