Manage your wireless network from an access point. It's the 21st century.
- NetworkManager
- dnsmasq
- hostapd
After you have installed the dependencies, run ./install.sh
.
Change your /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf
file to something like:
interface=<INTERFACE-NAME>
driver=nl80211
hw_mode=g
ssid=<MY-SSID/NETWORK-NAME>
channel=1
wpa=2
wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
wpa_pairwise=CCMP
wpa_passphrase=<MY-PASSWWORD>
- Replace
<INTERFACE-NAME>
with your interface name. You can usenetutils.get_interface()
to get your interface name. It is usually something likewlan0
. - Replace
<MY-SSID/NETWORK-NAME>
with the desired name for your wireless network. - Replace
<MY-PASSWORD>
with the desired password for your wireless network.
Change your /etc/dnsmasq.conf
file to something like:
no-resolv
interface=<INTERFACE-NAME>
