I have a wired internet connection to my PC and cannot get a router at the moment....

 

I have googled this and came up with the solution offered by connectify...the program...but it isnt as reliablle as I wanted it to be (my android phone keeps dropping the connection whenevr it wants) 

. I have also heard of virtual network but i dont wont to try it  out as they say it doesnt work well with windows 10 PCs , and mine happens to be one of them. 

 

Is there any other way which works better? Maybe a built in feature? Any help is appreciated... 

Please vote for Donald Trump. I am out of sitcoms to watch.

When lyfe gives you HDDs, make SSDs

I don't understand what you're trying to say. You have no wireless router?
