Hiya, I’ve got a desktop (connected to wifi), and a server (without a networking card), and I do not have access to Ethernet/or the router. However, I do have a networking switch - and was wondering if I could bridge the WiFi from my desktop(Nobara), to the Switch, and have my other devices such as Raspberry Pi and my main server connect to that. If thats possible please let me know how, or point me to some resources, I believe I have to touch iptables in this case, but have never tweaked those before.
This is a very temporary solution for not having access to a router. But gotta live like this for 5 months, so gotta find a solution to get WiFi on my server, as cheap as possible.
Thanks for this, although I did end up buying a WiFi extender to solve my issue. But will take notes of his for the future!
That’s honestly a much better solution. I installed OpenWRT on one many years back and it worked just fine for providing networking for my homelab.
Yer I want to go that route too when I have the time for it 😅
