Need to turn your Windows 7 into a WIFI Hotspot ??

I am preparing to manage my TechNet/MSDN booth at the New Efficiency Launch @ Suntec City. I will be speaking as part of keynotes. On the side track, i am managing the TechNet/MSDN booth.

At the booth, you can sign up to TechNet/MSDN Flash newsletters to get in touch with our Singapore team, and also a quiz to win a Lenovo S10-2. As part of this, i need to provide internet access to 2 laptop kiosk that we make available at this booth. We will be in Room 209 at Suntec Convention Center. Beside us will be MS Press. We've partnered with them to provide you 30% discount at the event site off any MS Press books.

So i had to think about providing internet access to both stations and my own laptop. There are several ways to do it, but i stumbled on this Connectify and i thought its quite innovative. The last time i came across something like this was for the mobile phone.

This software allows you to turn your Windows 7 into a WIFI Hotspot to share the internet connection that runs on a Windows 7 laptop. So now i can easily use a mobile internet usb device from the telco and share the connection with other machines. There are still some kinks with device support, but definitely something worth a checkout.

Join the beta test now.
