You might be thinking, why would we do this? Since there are certain devices in home and offices that still do not offer WiFi connectivity option like smart TVs old , media players, NAS devices, and more… Such kind of devices needs a wired Ethernet connection to connect to the Internet.
So, if you think without a router, how do you share the internet from a laptop or PC then here is the answer….

After that, right-click either on Wifi or Ethernet adapter and then select the option Bridge connections. Step 7: As soon you make the bridge between the two adapters, the other ethernet device that is connected to your host computer can use the internet connection. Furthermore, also a Network bridge adapter will be created by Windows separately from where you can check the IP address range or other properties shared by both the adapters.
Because both will share the same IP address range. Manually set the IP address to Manually set the Subnet mask to Manually set the Preferred DNS server to Turn on the ad hoc wireless network Open View network connections from the Windows Start menu.
