A shell script that turns a Linux machine's WiFi adapter into a NATed or bridged wireless access point using hostapd. It supports WPA/WPA2 encryption, hidden SSIDs, client isolation, 802.11n/ac, and systemd integration.
Use cases
- create a wifi hotspot on linux from the command line
- share my ethernet internet connection over wifi
- set up a WPA2 access point with hostapd
- bridge wifi clients to my lan
- run a persistent access point as a systemd service
- create an open wifi network without a password
When to choose
- you need a simple script-based WiFi AP on Linux with NAT or bridging
- you want fine control over encryption, channel, SSID hiding, and client isolation
- you prefer a CLI over GUI hotspot tools
When to avoid
- you want a maintained project - use the linux-wifi-hotspot or linux-router forks instead
- you need a GUI
- you are on a non-Linux platform
