Virtual Wireless Router

Great little program by Codeplex that does exactly what it promises, it turns your Notebook or a PC into a WiFi Hotspot.

I connected my Android smartphone and iMac at the same time and it works like a charm!

This can come in really handy when there's only one connection available but you need at least two or more and you don't have an actual Wireless router at place.
