The release of Connectify 6
Connectify 6 is here! This is a major new release that is the latest and greatest for both Connectify Hotspot and Dispatch.
Features Update
New look for Hotspot
- The user interface is no longer always on top, is resizeable, and can be moved anywhere on the desktop.
- Additionally, the menu has been expanded into a menu bar, so everything’s easier to find.
- Passwords just got easier. There is a Generate Password button that will suggest a new, random password. By default the password is shown in the status bar for easy access while the Hotspot is running (but there’s a “Hide” link right there, if you don’t want your password displayed).
Switchboard and Dispatch Compatibility
For all those people with both Dispatch and Switchboard, you can now run them both at the same time. Switchboard Internet access wins out over Dispatch Local. But, running a personal server, you can then share Internet via Hotspot and share Dispatch client access. You can also use Switchboard to VPN somewhere without using Internet from the hub, and use Dispatch Local to balance your connection. Note that you need Connectify 6 and Switchboard Beta 4 to use this.
Faster, more accurate testing speed in Dispatch
Dispatch’s speed tests of Internet connections are faster and more accurate now.
Dropped support for WPS thumbdrives
Hotspot no longer has the “Save Settings to Thumbdrive” option to write the connection settings to a USB thumb drive. Windows 8 has dropped support for that feature, and won’t use the drives that Connectify sets up.
"Clone Wi-Fi" is now "Wi-Fi Extender"
The “Clone Wi-Fi” feature has been renamed to “Wi-Fi Extender” as that is clearer, more commonly used name for this sort of thing. It’s also a lot easier to find, right in the Tools menu.
