Hello! Is there any way to turn my pc into a wifi-hotspot while using wifi connection? The idea is to recieve internet from a wifi-router on my pc, and from the same pc to retransmit the internet like a hotspot. Thanks
edit doktor5000: Although that depends on whether the driver for your wireless chipset supports the AP mode. You can check that as root via iw list and check the Supported interface modes section Can you please show the output as root of
Great! But i'm having a hardship with that. I'm connected to my Wifi router and when i start hostapd it stops the internet to my computer and it turns it to AP. I found topics how to make a bridge from eth to wlan but im getting the signal from wlan, not from eth. Is there any way to stay connected to wlan and to have an AP at the same time?
Thanks! I set up hostapd.conf, but.. problems came: Using WPA, when i try to connect to my computer via my phone, it says: Incorrect password. When i switch to WEP it accepts the password but cannot get an IP.
