Commands for setting wireless hosted network on Windows 10

Sometimes it's convenient to setup a wireless hosted network on Windows, especially without a soft AP. When living or going to some countries with Internet access restriction, it's convenient to setup a VPN connection, then setup a hosted network to share the Internet connection of VPN.

Following are commands to ease such a task.

First is to create the hosted network:

netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=Your-SSID key="Your-Password"
netsh wlan start hostednetwork

Then do the sharing:

One can inspect the status of the hosted network via the following command:
netsh wlan show hostednetwork
or
netsh wlan show hostednetwork setting=security

If after some time, not necessary to continue the host network, the following command can stop it:
netsh wlan stop hostednetwork

If one wants to alter the password, for instance, you forget the original one, utilizing the following command:
netsh wlan set hostednetwork key="Your-New-Password"
netsh wlan refresh hostednetwork key

The SSID can be changed as well:
netsh wlan set hostednetwork ssid="Your-New-SSID"

Happy networking, happy surfing!
