In this tutorial, i will be showing you (with pictures) how you can easily and conveniently connect your G6 Decoder to a wi-fi hotspot. Once you connect your g6 to the internet, you will be able to use your g6 with cccam, you will also be able to use the iptv / internet tv e.g youtube on your g6. To connect g6 with a wired network e.g (Lan) is pretty easy so i shall be involving  myself with the more complex and technical aspect, that is how to connect g6 to a wifi hotspot.
The good thing about this is that, you can use either your phone as the wi-fi hotspot, use your computer as the wi-fi hotspot or use your company’s wi-fi as the hotspot.

IMPORTANT PREREQUISITES:

• If you want to use your laptop as the WI-FI hotspots, i will advice you to download a pc software called connectify hotspot. This pc software, will convert your pc into a wi-fi hotspot as well as share your internet connection. If you have a good internet connection with connectify installed, you can use your laptop as a wifi hotspot,.
• Alternatively, you can use your phone as the wifi hotspot. It doesn’t matter the type of smartphone you use, all i know is that all high-end to middle range phones comes preloaded with wifi hotspots.. Phones like nokia lumina 920, Android phones, high-end blackberry phones like bold 5, bold 6, z10, q10, iPhone 4 and newer e.t.c…they all have a wifi hotspot pre-installed. iPhone call his, personal hotspot, android call his portable hotspots. To enable this features, in you respective phones, goto the network / wi-fi settings of your device.
• The third and the most important prerequisite is that you will need to buy a W-FI Adapter. This wi-fi adapter will be attached to your G6 as shown below, and it is what will equip your g6, with the capabilities of searching for and seeing a nearby wi-fi hotspot. In other words, without a wi-fi hotspot, your g6 or even qsat will not be able to search for a wi-fi connection. it will only scan for eternity. A picture of a wi-fi adapter that am using is shown below;
• Of couse i don’t need to tell you that you need an internet data plan. please don’t use all this 10mb free promo and don’t use your pay as you go airtime. Load a data bundle of not less than 100mb.
