We lives in modern world and still many of us don’t have Wi-Fi modem in our house. The reason is Wi-Fi modem/router expensive than the normal LAN and USB modem. But we do have Wi-Fi feature in our mobile phones. Many times our phones app or games requires big data to be download via 3g or Wi-Fi. 3G is still an expensive connection for average income family users and without a Wi-Fi router we can’t actually create a Wi-Fi ad-hoc network. We may have internet in our house but we don’t have Wi-Fi router. That time we feel upset. Sometimes at mall, school, collage or offices we gets Wi-Fi networks and we use them. That time we recognize importance of Wi-Fi to download things faster without subscribing for an internet or 3g plan for a mobile separately.
Technology changes within a day. You buy something and the next day you get better stuff for cheaper price. Same way there is a small and cheap Wi-Fi adapter for your pc to create Wi-Fi ad hoc without a Wi-Fi router or modem. If you’re not able to buy wireless modem than you should go for Wi-Fi adapter and create a Wi-Fi hotspot in your house. There are many mini USB Wi-Fi adapters available on online stores like amazon, naaptol etc. but you might get cheaper if you buy from local pc market. I had seen a cheapest wifi adapter on ebay is 4$. You can find the best one for you and set up your home wireless network.
