Many times there is the situation that you want to share your internet with your friends, on Android sharing internet is not a very hard job, one just has to open wifi-hotspot and then another person can access internet through that hotspot. But I think that most of us are unaware of how to create that same(as on android) internet sharing wifi hotspot. However, you should also consider sharing your wireless VPN to ensure WiFi security.
