I cant see any option of changing the password of my hot-spot created in Kali.

          When you enable your hotspot, click options. In the options menu, select "wireless security". From there you can choose your own password.

          • The part I can't figure out is how to keep internet running through the hotspot. Wifi reception is really bad in my room, however if I walk right outside my door, I have all the internet I need. I want to create a hotspot with my kali linux laptop, and stream the internet through here. I think i have to have a hardwired connection, though.

          Not really sure about The other given answer but what worked for me was the following:



          1- nano the following file



          nano /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/Hotspot



          2- The information should be like this



          [connection]
          id=Hotspot
          uuid=8848099e-7a0f-46c5-8264-bb6c2a3aa5e1
          type=wifi
          autoconnect=false
          permissions=
          secondaries=

          [wifi]
          hidden=true
          mac-address=A0:88:69:95:92:C3
          mac-address-blacklist=
          mode=ap
          seen-bssids=
          ssid=PutTheNameOfTheHotspotHere

          [wifi-security]
          group=ccmp;
          key-mgmt=wpa-psk
          pairwise=ccmp;
          proto=rsn;
          psk=PutHereThePassword

          [ipv4]
          dns-search=
          method=shared

          [ipv6]
          dns-search=
          method=auto


          3- Save the file and head to the Network manager as you usually do and enable a hotspot.



          Done . (If the hotspot doesn't work from the first time try closing the window and enable it again , not sure why but it seems like the first time will only set the card but not enable it .)

            • The part I can't figure out is how to keep internet running through the hotspot. Wifi reception is really bad in my room, however if I walk right outside my door, I have all the internet I need. I want to create a hotspot with my kali linux laptop, and stream the internet through here. I think i have to have a hardwired connection, though.
