==== sharing Internet ====
You can share Internet between two network adapters (for example Wi-Fi <-> Ethernet) without any additional apps or hardware. Just choose ''sharing'' option on the network you want to have shared. For example to share Wi-Fi connection with Ethernet choose sharing on Wi-Fi. There's a DHCP server that will automatically run on the adapter you are sharing to and it sets the adapter to IP ''192.168.137.1''. I couldn't find a way to find out the IP addresses it assigned except to ping (and there's no broadcast ping). Something like (cmd prompt):
  * ''FOR /L %i in (1,1,255) do @ping -n 1 192.168.137.%i >> [FILENAME]''
You can search the file with the output for ''Approx''. Those IP addresses will be the assigned ones from the DHCP server.

From there you can ssh in but you need to get permissions correct (read from you only and no inheritance) for the cert (I could only get private cert to work i.e. ''-i [PRIVATE_CERT_FILE])''. 

==== other random notes ====
  * know current connection: ''netsh wlan show interfaces''
  * get password: ''wlan show profile name="Sean" key=clear''
  * add profile: ''netsh WLAN add profile filename="c:\Users\user\Wireless Network Connection-Filimin_14064969.xml"''
  * connect to profile: ''netsh wlan connect name=Filimin_14063765''
