Whether it's vacation time, job travel or just leisure travel, you might find yourself in need for a router to share an Internet connection with other devices, extend a WiFi network or maybe just create a network between your devices. So, the first thing that comes into mind is a travel version of your home router that you'd need to have with you when traveling.

However, there’s no reason to carry around a bulky hardware device to stay connected on-the-road or at job sites. With just your laptop’s internal WiFi card and Connectify Hotspot software, you’ve got a fully-featured virtual router right inside your Windows PC.

First, let's take a look at some situations you might identify yourself with:

• You’re stuck in a hotel room with just a wired Ethernet connection and have no way of getting your WiFi devices online.
• You're using the inflight WiFi or in a hotel where Internet is expensive and is paid per device.
• You're at your friends' house and want to run a LAN party with your game consoles, but you get a NAT type error when trying to connect.
• You're outside your home, on your lawn, and you can't get your WiFi network's signal on your mobile devices.

A conventional router cannot help you in all cases - e.g. you cannot use it with captive portals, where you have to enter a username and password or click a button on a website in order to access the Internet. Or with getting a moderate or open NAT type for your game console.
