Wifi dongle as access point

Hello.

There was a mention in older thread that it is possible to use wifi dongle as access point in future.

Is it possible already and if it is, how it is done? I could only get it to work as wifi client.

I use TL-WN823N adapter.

Hello Lauri,

we will release most likely the Wifi usage as Accesspoint/client by RM2207.
The handling for configuration is currently not supported by our web-ui. Manually setup with rest-api gets necessary to modify the default (client mode).

Please consider that 2 WiFi USB devices are supported right now but NOT both of them support AccessPoint-mode connected on the ctrlX.

The NETIS Wifi supports both Opmodes

ย 

The TP-Link provides only client mode in connection with the ctrlX.

Take care ording the exact type... other chipsets are not supported by the ctrlX-integrated drivers.

Bye
