I think you can do it from PowerShell.

The netshell commands should also work on IoT to setup the Pi WiFi as an Access Point.

To enable 'Internet Connection Sharing'.

(Mind you, this does all assume that the required functionality made it to IoT - netsh is certainly there, the rest I haven't tested).

Maybe I have Windows 10 IoT Core wrong but thought it was developed as a Client Device ?

Windows 10 IoT Core is being Marketed as a client device.

It contains a full NT kernel which can easily do server side roles, you just have the program them.

P.S. It has active http and ftp servers built in as standard.
