Is it possible to make an application for sharing wifi on N900?
I mean I have a wifi router and I have my N900 connected to it through wifi. Is it possible to make N900 work as a hotspot?
Something similar to mobile hotspot application but instead of sharing GPRS or 3G connection

this way I can give access to others without letting them access my router and therefore not sharing my WPA key.
it's also a good way to extend the router's range

I doubt very much that the power of the wifi adapter inside the n900 would do anything to increase the range of the router.

if the router sends a signal for lets say 70 meters and n900 adapter range is 30 meters and you are 60 meters from the router, you can give access to another device at 90 meters from the router, something which was impossible before
