Connecting things to your VPN made simple. Share your VPN connection over hotspot or repeater. (root required)
This app is useful for:
- Connecting things that don't support VPN like Chromecasts behind corporate firewalls;
- Setting up gapps behind corporate firewalls;
- Connecting to your mobile hotspot but you're not bothered to set up VPN on your device;
- Bypassing tethering limits. (you might need more of a real VPN than an ad-blocker to fool a smarter cellular provider)
P.S. You can also do the similar on Windows and Mac. I don't know about you but I can't get my stupid Windows 10 to work with hosted network now that they introduced this Mobile hotspot.
This app is designed to do only minimal changes to your system, so there's almost no chance you will brick your device and/or break your Internet using this app under normal conditions. However there's also absolutely no guarantee it won't.
This could caused by the Wi-Fi channel you selected is no longer available, due to:
- Your device doesn't support operating on this channel, or
- There is some nearby Wi-Fi direct device that broadcasted that it can't operate on the channel you picked.
For maximum stability, you need to set channel = 0 so that your device will pick a channel automatically. You can also use WPS to connect your 2.4GHz-only device to force the repeater to switch from 5GHz to 2.4GHz for this time.
Toggling USB tethering only works if you install this app as a system app (/system/priv-app).
Alternatively, use the toggle in your system settings instead.
Without root, you can only:
- View connected devices for system tethering and monitor them if your SELinux status is not enforcing (otherwise you can still do manual refreshes);
- Toggle tether switches if you can't do it already;
- Play around with settings and the user interface in general;
- Alternatively you can use try these apps (requires manual proxy configuration or client apps) for normal repeater tethering/bypassing tethering limits: (note: these apps are neither free nor open source)
