Hi everyone,

 

I have a Windows 10 64 bits Desktop PC (https://www.evaris.com/shop/hp-290-g1-micro-tower-core-i5-7500-3-4-ghz-4-gb-500-gb) and I want to share my ethernet wired internet by Wifi (I do not have a modem/router). I plan to buy this product : https://www.tp-link.com/fr/home-networking/adapter/tl-wn881nd/. Could I create a Wifi hotspot if I installed this product on a PCI-Express port in my computer please ?

 

Thank you in advance for answers.

For the TL-WN881ND, the utility is end of life, no more maintainence. So we do not suggest you to use the utility to set it up as a softAP. 

 

Instead, you can use the built-in mobile hotspot function or some other third party programme to boost wifi signal with TL-WN881ND provides wireless connection for the desktop; 

 

Good day.
