Virtual Router Manager is a nifty little program that allows the user to turn their computer into a wireless router. Now to some people, this might seem like a waste of time, but in reality, it is one of the smartest things a person can do with their computer. Let's get the obvious out of the way first. Routers are very expensive pieces of hardware that often cost upwards of $200. Especially if you want to avoid having to buy a new one every year because you don't want to spend more than $100 on something high-end. We've all been there before. We chose the cheap $20 router only to have to buy a new one months later.

Virtual Router Manager completely eliminates this problem by turning your computer into your router. The process is incredibly simple. Once you make your WiFi hotspot out of your computer, you just share the network that has internet access. It's that simple. Virtual Router Manager allows the user to set up network passwords so those annoying neighbors don't hop on your network and slow you down. In addition to that, users can see all devices that are connected to the network so you can easily weed out devices that don't belong. Virtual Router Manager also has built-in encryption so hackers can't gain access to your network or sensitive information.

What I like most about Virtual Router Manager, is that it's completely user-friendly. It's not some complicated software that would require someone with advanced computer knowledge to use. For the most part, the software is plug-and-play. It's a great application for anyone that wants to avoid the high costs of a router or needs a temporary virtual router until they can buy a replacement. The best part about Virtual Router Manager is that it's free to use.
