Launch a command prompt with administrator privileges. (Type cmd on the Start Screen, right-click the icon, and click Run as Administrator.)
Type `netsh wlan show drivers` and verify if Hosted network supported says Yes. If it says No, you are done. Your NIC doesn’t support Wi-Fi sharing.
Hosted network supported
Type `netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=Hotspot key=12345678`. (Note that you can replace “Hotspot” and the security key with your favorite settings.)

**house rules:**
carcassonne - draw tile at end of turn
betrayal of house on the hill - have peek functionality. You can peek into a doorway, only you get to draw the card and place it face-down where you peeked
catan - robber swaps the number. 
Road placement occurs after everyone has chosen their starting locations, in the same order. This prevents being blocked before you start.
2 and 12 activate each other, making them equal to the 3 and 11 spaces in terms of probability.
No robbers for the first round. 7s are rerolled.
I play with an interesting house rule for Catan. Roll three dice, choose which two actually apply. It changes probabilities, and gives the player some agency over what resources get generated. Plus, you can usually choose to screw someone over with the robber or not. I think it makes it a bit more cutthroat and less random.

Just as a rule of thumb so you don't run into these future dilemmas... for regular potential:
emblem: %att/pdr > %dmg > % stat, unless you're at super end game with 250%+ bossing, then %stat > %dmg
secondary/weapon: %boss/pdr > %att/pdr > recube any other line don't even think about it
whether you want to keep pdr is very dependent on how much total pdr you have (that number on your stats screen). >60% for regular bosses, >80% if you're doing the high tier bosses like hmag/empress/CRA, >90% if you're doing end game bosses like chaos vellum.

This is a common problem, especially for the many who under-value themselves at first and learn fast what our time is really worth. Been there! Here's something similar to what I've sent in the past, and now the expectations for rate increases are included in my long term contracts.
