I use this app, didn't have to change settings, just made my own network name and password.

Turn your WiFi on.
Interface : wlan0
Method : 3 hostapd
Encryption : wpa2-psk
Channel : 1
Drivers : nl80211
*"No Firmware Reload"* unchecked
WiFi mode : WiFi - n


For some reason I had to keep my wifi off, put the method back to auto, and keep my wifi mode on g.
Everything else is the same settings. Pretty sure that's the only difference on my L70-Metro.

The other 3 apps I mentioned don't have many settings, they'll basically either work or not, but will most likely show the native hotspot in the notification bar. They work for some, not all, just from my personal experience.
