Since it can be configured in mere seconds and activated in just a few mouse clicks, It represents one of the fastest ways to build your personal home virtual network. So, the same as you can easily share your phone’s internet connectivity via broadcasting of the WiFi signal, you can do the same now with your PC. The biggest benefit of this approach is that you can enable all your mobile devices to piggy-back on a single internet source, not needing to waste precious mobile data that can cause additional costs on your bills.
