Allow one hotspot per device when several devices are detected? #70

Versions

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior.

Expected behavior Could it be possible to create one hotspot per device inside the same app or install the app several time and create one hotspot per device per app?

Waiting for this option to come, how can I create a second wifi hostpost (I have a usb wifi hotspot ready dongle) by ssh, changing hostapd config manually?

Well now, with the new app v2.0, I can't even change between devices...

I plug only wlan0, app is working well.

I plug wlan 1, it still works but I should not try changing settings. I can't choose between wlan 0 or wlan 1. The only option is image

And well, still not possible to set two different hotspots, one on each device.

It seems possible though : https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/618635/hostapd-on-two-interfaces-two-configuration-files

One of the interest is, for example if you place a raspbery pi in a room (one device) to which you plug an usb wifi adapter (second device) that you place in an other room thanks to a usb cable going through a big wall that wifi can't go through. Then you can have two wifi sources in two different rooms.

Closing because the bug in second comment should be fixed now

Ìndeed, the bug in second comment is fixed but not the main bug/feature of this issue which is the possibility to set one different wifi hotspot per device available.
