Right so i cannot solve this for this life of me or figure it out so hoping for some help or assistance, there are two companies involved in this service which ill call company A and company B:

Company A - Supplies The Transit Lines via Hotspots that require logging into (The Normal)
Company B - Supplies The VPN in which a given login is used to access the internet

So simple real company terms A(Telkom) and B(Like Mweb)

Right, so what i wanted to do is share the VPN(Internet) i recieve from B to my iOS and other devices in my house, all well and good but i cannot do this arrrrr !!!

I use a laptop and the steps to logging in are as follows ima break it down, maybe im missing a "loop hole" here, so connecting to the Hotspot A offers im directed to a login page where i login on details iv registered with the A company, after logging in im re-directed to a page where i cannot do anything it just tells me iv logged in successfully, after that i open the VPN that a .exe automatically setup from B company (i think that this automatic setup process limited/has hidden settings in) after opening that VPN i use a second set of login details to login to the B company. Opening my browser and i just confirm the login details of company B for the proxy used and there i go on the internet, any app on my pc may use the internet and all but i cannot get ever Connectify to share the internet, and right clicking on the VPN to share it in windows cuts out the VPN connection.

Your help is appreciated in advance, thank you...:whistle:

What is your budget?
I would grab a Mikrotik Routerboard like an RB751U for about R600, which does the Wireless and VPN routing.

Why dont you just install a proxy server on your computer, when everything is connected and all applications on your PC can access the internet , so should the proxy on your PC. (You will need and access point though other wise you will need to establish an Ad-ho wireless connection to your PC from the devices like an iPhone or iPad)

set the proxy settings of your devices to the IP of your computer, and which ever port the prxy listens on , mostly 3128 if its squid or mostly 8080
 
Okey finally got around to doing this

I'm stuck on one small step now

Setup the pc all good running proxify now and everything is great, I setup connectify to share the vpn connection of my pc and that's where I'm stuck, as the previous post said I'll try later to setup the proxy server on my phone to the ip of my computer and repost back here

Thought ill just post back after all this time to keep it updated if anyone searches the Internet for the same problem
