## NOT MAINTAINED
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This project is no longer maintained.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Forks and continuation of this project
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* [linux-wifi-hotspot] - Fork that is focused on providing GUI and improvements.
|
||
|
|
* [linux-router] - Fork that is focused on providing new features and
|
||
|
|
improvements which are not limited to WiFi. Some interesting features are:
|
||
|
|
sharing Internet to a wired interface and sharing Internet via a transparent
|
||
|
|
proxy using redsocks.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Features
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Create an AP (Access Point) at any channel.
|
||
|
|
* Choose one of the following encryptions: WPA, WPA2, WPA/WPA2, Open (no encryption).
|
||
|
|
* Hide your SSID.
|
||
|
|
* Disable communication between clients (client isolation).
|
||
|
|
* IEEE 802.11n & 802.11ac support
|
||
|
|
* Internet sharing methods: NATed or Bridged or None (no Internet sharing).
|
||
|
|
* Choose the AP Gateway IP (only for 'NATed' and 'None' Internet sharing methods).
|
||
|
|
* You can create an AP with the same interface you are getting your Internet connection.
|
||
|
|
* You can pass your SSID and password through pipe or through arguments (see examples).

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Bridged Internet sharing (pre-configured bridge interface):
|
||
|
|
create_ap -m bridge wlan0 br0 MyAccessPoint MyPassPhrase
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Internet sharing from the same WiFi interface:
|
||
|
|
create_ap wlan0 wlan0 MyAccessPoint MyPassPhrase
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Choose a different WiFi adapter driver
|
||
|
