I want to create several wireless access points. Initially, I used the create_ap script. However, it is when creating two access points on two awus adapters. On one access point there is Internet, on the other it is not. I create access points like this:

sudo ./create_ap --daemon -c 1 wlx00c0cad3c750 --mac 00:c0:ca:d3:c7:50 enp4s0 ap1 12345678
sudo ./create_ap --daemon -c 1 wlx00c0cad3c751 --mac 00:c0:ca:d3:c7:51 enp4s0 ap2 12345678

Are there any other ways to create access points?

  • I think only one access point per adapter – lnee Aug 15 '22 at 12:06
  • @Inee, yes, but I use several adapters – gleb_work Aug 15 '22 at 12:06
  • You can write your own script that calls the script create_ap multiple times. – user68186 Aug 15 '22 at 12:34
  • @user68186, I call the create_ap script in the terminal twice, two access points are created. When connecting to the first access point, there is an Internet connection, but the second access point does not have an Internet connection. – gleb_work Aug 15 '22 at 14:11
  • This point is not clear in your question. It looks like you are asking about creating multiple AP. If you are asking about how to provide Internet access to both of all APs you have to edit your question and make it clearer. – user68186 Aug 15 '22 at 15:22

you may use hostapd and dublicate config as well as startscript. the is a parameter inside the hostapd.conf file defining the interface (e.g. interface=wlp1s0) to be used. This requires separate PID files and possibly separate sockets.
