This can be done using a free software, virtual router manager. Aside from being completely free, this program is noteworthy in that setting up your wireless hotspot is simplicity itself. All you need is to run the program, provide a name and password for your network, and you’re done. Your wi-fi hotspot will be up and running within minutes. This is easy as a child’s play.

Feature of this small app are explained as below:

• Ease of use: as previously mentioned, I was able to get a wifi connection running almost instantly after install, and only had to set a password to do so.

• Connection problems: if you are encountering problems check to see if you are connected to the internet using a wired internet connection and not wifi. Alternately, you might need to update the driver of your wifi device, or you device may not be compatible with the new Windows 7 features mentioned above. Check out the FAQ if you need to troubleshoot.

• Encryption: WPA2 encryption by default.

• Performance: was excellent; the wifi connection was fast and responsive; however, I do not know if the wifi connection is handicapped in any way compared to a "normal" wifi router for example. If you have some information and could shed light on this in the comments section Ii would be grateful.

The only issue is that it works only on Windows 7.
