He will nedd to buy Connectify pro to be able to use Mblaze as a source of Internet.

@OP. Go back to Windows 7. I searched a lot and could not find any solution either for Windows 8.

Tried connectify not working.
Not an option to go to Windows7. What's guarantee that it would work after that?

which laptop do you have?
New HP laptops have an app for wifi hotspot to make a PC become a hotspot taking internet off LAN or Mblaze and so on.

I have HP15-b002U. Will it now work n it?
(offtopic but I am unable to change password. I have to again and again click on forgot password.)

Can you see 'Microsoft Virtual WiFi MiniPort Adapter' in device manager > Network adapters?

No, there is nothing like Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter.

Check if your wifi adapter is compatible with connectify. If the hardware isn't capable of creating a hotspot (like Intel® PRO/Wireless 3945ABG which my laptop has), no software would be of help.

Try this using cmd

It is capable of doing so because I checked it by typing a command in CMD which verified it can.

I have already tried these methods. Not working.

When you create virtual wifi hotspot, the above entry should be visible under device manager and network adapter list. I have successfully tried creating wi-fi hotspot in my toshiba laptop running win 8. In my PC I am using Edup brand wi-fi adapter and the software/driver itself has an option to create virtual wi-fi.

the sharing properties should be like this (for your Wifi Router)

in the drop down menu, select the network provided by the USB Modem

I have followed each step carefully. So, yes I have done it many times , everytime I try.

Already made clear in the first post that I have tried most of the softwares and watched many videos.
Since, you asked to watch this one, I watched it and it's the same as the other videos are.
Not working still.

???????????????????

try with connectify pro

else only option is windows 7 or try with windows 8 pro

in windows 7 home basic as well microsoft has implemeted many restrictions like i can't connect my camera through wifi in home basic it requires ultimate or home premium for that so it could be MS has disabled that facility in windows 8 so people buy Pro editions taking a guess here this could be the reason as you have already tried many tutorials and softwares

Seems like this is the only option left.
I'll try dual booting Windows 7.

I used a tool named OSToto Hotspot to creat WiFi hotspot on my Windows 8.1 laptop, it is better than CMD way!
