I know that there is an option to start a wifi hotspot on Ubuntu when you are connected to the wired network. But when I want to use my wifi connection as a hotspot, Ubuntu asks me to disconnect from my wifi and then create a hotspot, which is of no use.
If you have ever heard about the software called Connectify Hotspot, I want to use that functionality in ubuntu 14.10.
Is there any way to do that? i am excited to know about that

Good Day my Linux Friends! I was wondering if anybody can help me with an interesting project i am working on?
I have an interesting issue in which I have a Lubuntu 14.04, that I am working to set up as a hotspot hub. That means when the banana pi/ rasberry pi is spitting out wifi signal, I can connect to it, a chrome window or ie window will pop up and i can sign in and start manipulating the device?
So essentially a piratebox with a linux system that you can login into.
I am curious if that is possible?? I have scoured the net and haven't found the right thing, anybody know any good projects they can point me too?
Hello there,
i've just installed the ubuntu 1.4 version in my laptop alongside a version of windows 7. The problem is that while working with ubuntu i cannot operate the wifi connection to my modem, looks like the driver is not working, any ideas?
thank you in advance
Hi, this is my first post here.
I just finished installing Suse13.1 on my computer.
There is no network connection established either LAN or Wifi.
I suspect there are a few drivers missing, but how do i determinate them?
furthermore my Graphiccard (GeForce GTX 770) seems also to need a special treatment, because it does not show a life sign.
if you need some systemoutput, please leave a comment.
Hello everybody,
I am seeking help regarding sharing internet connection. I would be greatful.
I have;
A Laptop : Samsung RV509, i3, 300GB HDD, 3GB Ram, Dual boot Windows7 & LM 17 cinnamon 32bit. WiFi & Bluetooth available.
A Desktop PC : Celeron CPU 2.4GHZ, 40 GB HDD, 1GB RAM, LiveUSB-LM 17 cinnamon 32bit, No WiFi hardware available, No Bluetooth hardware available.
A mobile phone : Nokia Asha 500, WiFi & Bluetooth available.
An old USB data cable: with which the mobile phone can be connected to the computers. I have successfully connected and transfered data back & forth, and also shared/connected Mobile-Broadband-internet to both Laptop and Desktop.
What I have been doing now is; I have an internet connection to my Laptop with an external modem and Ethernet. Its working fine. I have an unlimited plan and so I want to share this internet connection on the mobile phone too; instead of incuring extra cost by connecting to the internet directly through the phone. I am successful at that. I can share this internet connection on my phone through WiFi.
Now, what I want to do is; without buying any extra hardware, to share this same internet connection on my Desktop PC, too.
What I tried is; I searched the web, but didn't find any solution. Now I am here. Please kindly help me.
Thank you & Regards

I have a WiFi dongle that said to support GNU/Linux, however no drivers were found on the CD, after hours of research i found this and installed the driver, I'm pretty sure my device is listed as supported, but the device is still not recognized, it is listed on lsusb command, but not recognized by any WiFi program like WiFi Radar and wireless-tools, also when i use the iwconfig command, this is what i see, i really need this wireless connection working, can you help, please?
i recently installed ubuntu after being done with windows 7 on my dell lattitude d820 and when i donwnloaded that it wouldnt connect to wifi so i got julinux and that too wont work with wifi , i need help , its my first time using linux , please help me
I have a HP Compaq Presario CQ62-413NR. I have tried using many different distro's and I have the same problem. The networks will be seen and it will start to connect then it immediately gets disconnected. Tried everything on the Ubuntu forum and still nothing. The wifi works flawlessly with Windows though. The wireless card is an Atheros AR9285. I currently have Deepin Linux dual booted on my laptop with no Pro. Drivers for the card available in the settings. If anyone would like to assist me in getting this issue resolved I would greatly appreciate it. I am loving Linux OS!

Have had ongoing problems with wifi since I built my PC. It was like it is now when I first built it, I tried bits I found online to try and fix it and evntually it just started working out of the blue, when I hadn't changed anything. A few weeks ago it just reverted to how it was before
Very rarely it works normally, except it will only see my network (always about 60-70% strength) and not the other 3 in range
Sometimes it will say it is connected but not be able to download anything, and wont even load up the router homepage
Sometimes it connect and run for a few minutes before dropping and not being able to reconnect
Most often it will see my network and all others in range but wont connect
Sometimes it wont see my network at all, but will see others in range
Sometime network manager wont even show wireless up as an option just "nwtwork cable unplugged"
My 2 HDDs are on Mint 17.1, one is 64bit one 32bit. Motherboard is Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3P. I have 3 wifi adapters, one belkin, one realtek, and one "Think Penguin" one I bought especially from USA thinking it would be an easy fix. All have same problem, but all work on my other older PC properly with about 50-60% signal strength (same OS 32 bit)
I have no idea where to start
