This is the way.Nevermind, LineageOS let me do it. Got 4 devices connected now which it was asking for $189 for
Also, I think it's worth noting that Windows computers allow you to hotspot a WiFi or Ethernet connectionThis is the way.![]()
You can hotspot on iOS?I’m on a ship to Germany for 2 days, the cost for access to starlink was $48 (half of my ticket!)
And that’s just for one device
On iOS you can’t hotspot from an internet connection, is it possible to share it from an android phone?
It can be done with just one radio, but your access point would be restricted to using the same channel (and presumably channel width.etc) as the network you were acting as the client to.My understanding is that the OP wants to connect to the Wi-Fi service on their phone and then also share this out using the Wi-Fi radio on their phone, which on a hardware level would require two radios and the software to support this functionality.
The cost of accessing Wi-Fi on a ship is going to be set partly to work as a natural way to suppress demand for quite limited satellite bandwidth.
We’re getting around 120mbps down and 40-60 at a bare minimum, I don’t imagine that bandwidth is that limited hereThe cost of accessing Wi-Fi on a ship is going to be set partly to work as a natural way to suppress demand for quite limited satellite bandwidth.
Do you have a VPN? Does using port 53 work?We’re getting around 120mbps down and 40-60 at a bare minimum, I don’t imagine that bandwidth is that limited here
The option isn’t available on iOS but is on android
Are you thinking "iodine"?Do you have a VPN? Does using port 53 work?
No, although I'm trying to eat a balanced dietAre you thinking "iodine"?![]()
I would be interested to know of a model that can do this with one WiFi radio that isn't a repeater.It can be done with just one radio, but your access point would be restricted to using the same channel (and presumably channel width.etc) as the network you were acting as the client to.
OpenWRT and RouterOS can both do this via virtual AP/Subinterfaces as can probably various other devices.
It will also reduce the performance as the single radio is effectively having to receive a packet then re-transmit it, pretty much the same as wireless repeating/wireless meshing works for devices that do not have a dedicated radio for that purpose.
"Guest WiFi" usually includes client isolation, so that local devices cannot talk to each other.Reading the reference makes me wonder if other routers provide similar functionality as "Guest WiFi" instead of calling it "Virtual AP".
