Profiles

Easily create a new profile in Wi-Fi hotspot and repeater with its own settings and connected devices. Whether you are at home, on a business trip, or visiting friends, you can switch between them at any time without the need to remember their names and passwords. You can also use it to create a guest network in seconds.

Firewall

Within Wi-Fi hotspot and repeater, the internet and network access settings will no longer force the changes on existing devices. You'll need to press Ctrl to override the settings for existing devices. Furthermore, you can now whitelist or blacklist a URL for the advertisement blocker by creating a domains_whitelist and domains_blacklist file in the installation directory and adding the URL on a new line.

Wi-Fi hotspot and repeater starting time

Restarting a hotspot or repeater is no longer waited for if there are no devices connected.

Performance

You should see a significantly reduced latency and CPU usage thanks to a lot of optimizations.

What else?

Windows 7 compatibility has been improved and the issues that you've reported have all been fixed.
