#Introduction

Hotspotc is a small daemon based on prahladyeri/hotspotd to create a wifi hotspot on linux. It depends on hostapd for AP provisioning and dnsmasq to assign IP addresses to devices.

Hotspotc works by creating a virtual NAT (Network address transation) table between your connected device and the internet using Linux' iptables.

#Dependencies

  • dnsmasq (typically pre-installed on most linux distributions)
  • hostapd for AP provisioning

#How to use

Root is needed to start and stop hotspots.

To start a hotspot:

./hotspotc

To stop the hotspot: Ctrl-c.

When you run hotspotc, it will ask you for configuration values for SSID, password, etc.

#Testing status

Ahahahaha.
