1Last time I checked it was not possible to share a WiFi connection. Once you create your hotspot in managed mode, you loose your current WiFi connection. You need another Internet connection.

It is simple just click on your wifi icon and then create a new wifi network. Put name and password.
But it only works if your laptop is connect to a dongle or a wired connection.

You could have an ftp server, but you might need to be connected to an existing network. – Andres Sep 16 '15 at 06:24
