I am interested to know is there any way to create a WiFi hotspot in Windows 10 without using any password...
I know the command with password...
netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=Myhotspot key=password netsh start hosted network
It only starts hotspot with a password protection. I searched the whole Internet but I can't find any proper answer...
Once I have seen "connectify Hotspot" created an OPEN WiFi network with my PC... So I think it can also be done in command line. I don't want to use third-party software so please help me to solve this problem.
6I'd suggest using a password regardless of how simple, as unless you live in the mountains away from anyone malicious, leaving it open is a huge risk. Just a suggestion, though. – Hellreaver – 2016-01-05T04:18:45.913
don't do that unless you are happy to allow everybody to steal your bandwidth and use your internet connection for possibly illegal activities. – DavidPostill – 2016-01-05T13:30:48.433
Following up on Hellreaver's comment: any password will serve as the seed for the encryption keys for the connections to your users. If you say you don't need a password, provide a simple one, maybe even put it in the SSID. – Jan Doggen – 2016-01-05T15:59:39.573
