#### Find the strongest Wi-Fi signal and share it as a hotspot

Wifi Extender by Team of Monkeys .com helps you find the spot with the strongest Wi-Fi signal, then turns your Linux laptop into a hotspot so phones, tablets, TVs and other computers can share the internet it receives.

* A live signal gauge and chart, with a gold marker for the best spot you've found
* Nearby networks ranked by strength, with one-click joining
* Jump to Strongest: move to the strongest saved network in range
* Launch the hotspot from the main screen, on the Wi-Fi card you already have; no second adapter needed
* Rename the hotspot or change its password at any time, even while it is running
* Scan a QR code to join from a phone, and see which devices are connected
* Moves to your network's 2.4 GHz band by itself when the card can't broadcast on 5 GHz, and moves back when you stop

Wifi Extender works through NetworkManager. The hotspot is never saved to your system network settings and disappears when you stop it. No telemetry and no accounts.

**One-time setup:** Wifi Extender needs two permissions to manage your Wi-Fi. The app shows them on first start; you can also run:

```
sudo snap connect wifi-extender-team:network-manager
sudo snap connect wifi-extender-team:network-control
```

Most Intel, Realtek and MediaTek laptop cards can share their connection with a single card. The hotspot uses the same channel as your network; radar-checked 5 GHz channels (52-144) and 6 GHz cannot be used for broadcasting.

Only share an internet connection you are entitled to share.
