[Solved] Sharing WiFi with Hotspot

Post by AjaxXx »

Hey Guys,

I want to share my internet (which I connect to via wifi) with a hotspot. I know it can be done because I can do it on windows. However, linuxmint shuts the wifi connection down when creating a hotspot.

Is there any way to solve the problem?

With Linux it depends on if the wifi driver supports that mode but you can try https://github.com/lakinduakash/linux-wifi-hotspot
