minus-squaresmb@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up10·edit-212 days agoafter downloadmoreram.com was such a success, i guess something like wifi-hotspot as a service should exist somewhere too hm, without adding “new” hardware you say? add an old wifi stick add an old raspberry pi 1 stick the stick into the berry add hostapd package to berry add old ethernet calble and connect berry with the switch in the picture configure hostapd to mimic a wifi hotspot (thus its not “added”, just mimic’ed) configure routing, nat, dns and dhcp server (wlan side) on berry configure dhcp client on berry for lan side use an old cable tie to tie things together so it becomes “one piece” connect the switch with another old ethernet cable to your neighbours internet router tadaaa !!! turned into wifi hotspot without added hardware beeing “new”
