We have a 50K line, but my father switched to 100K 2 - 3 days ago, an employee from 1&1 will appear in the next 3 weeks, so we have no network for 3 weeks.
But now they have sent us a USB stick to have access to the network at least in time, but you have to connect it to a computer.
And I'm unfortunately the only one in the family who owns a laptop and also has access, but is it somehow possible to share it with the others?
I found nothing about it in the instructions, but I just can't imagine being the only one to be able to use it, maybe someone knows more?
Sry for German.
Since the stick has only USB, you can of course only use it on a USB port. Everything else would be technically too difficult for you to explain.
Can I somehow activate a kind of hotspot from my laptop so that the others in the family can also access it?
First of all, the laptop must be connected to the Internet. Now the user opens the settings and decides on the sub-item Network and Internet. The status window informs the user how the PC is connected to the Internet. To start tethering, the user clicks on the Mobile Hotspot item. If the PC is connected to the Internet, you can choose between WLAN1 or 2 and Ethernet under the label Enable your own Internet connection from. Then we clicked the edit button and set a network name and password. Furthermore, depending on the built-in WLAN adapter, you can also set the frequency on which the hotspot should function (all available, 2.4 or 5 GHz) in the sub-item Network frequency range. Setting All available decided Configure tethering in Windows 10 As soon as the basic settings have been made, the user activates the switch below the info text My Internet connection for other devices
It worked, thank you.
