<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 578904 by <a href="/recipes/users/4190347/">Prahlad Yeri</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/hotspot/">hotspot</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/linux/">linux</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/wifi/">wifi</a>). </p> <p>This recipe is based on Hotspotd, a small linux daemon to create a wifi hotspot on linux. It depends on hostapd for AP provisioning and dnsmasq to assign IP addresses to devices.</p> <p>Hotspotd works by creating a virtual NAT (Network address transation) table between your connected device and the internet using iptables.</p>
