MyPublicWiFi

MyPublicWiFi is an easy-to-use software that turns your laptop/tablet/PC into a Wi-Fi wireless access point or Multifunctional Hotspot. Anyone nearby can surf the Internet through your sharing.



This is also an ideal solution for setting up a temporary Access Point in a hotel room, meeting room, at home, or the like.

By enabling user authentication, Customers will be redirected to your login page to authenticate with an access password or accept the Terms Of Use before getting Internet access. The Firewall can be used to restrict user access to specific servers.

You can also prevent the use of certain Internet services (e.g. file sharing programs) or block the use of social media networks (e.g. Facebook).

MyPublicWiFi turns your PC into an Adblock Router. Advertising blockers are an effective way to save your internet bandwidth and protect the privacy of your user. The Bandwidth Manager helps you to control the download and upload rates for your hotspot clients. It allows you to record and track all visited URL pages on your virtual WiFi-Hotspot.

My Public WiFi allows you to set up port forwarding, is available in 12 languages, can be used without an Internet connection, and supports the "Hosted Network" and "WiFi Direct for Windows 10/11".
