Ad-Hoc support? #77

Closed jslay88 closed 3 years ago

jslay88 commented 5 years ago

Curious if this could support creating ad-hoc networks?

I have a particular use case where I need the computer to host a WiFi network with a specified SSID and password. 2.4Ghz if it matters. DHCP addressing would be great too! :)

Hi, Sorry for the delay. This is funny because at the beginning node-wifi was meant to be used in a project to create self-hosted wifi networks and we also had a dhcp server. Hosting wifi might be a feature to implement if we found a solution to make it worked on all OS which is easy. Please propose an implementation if you want these feature.

However DHCP is not planned since it is totally different technology. I think that you can find nice DHCP servers in node.js
