Hello, I am just starting with Navigatrix. I have used Linux before for work but on my boat I currently have a Panasonic Toughbook running OpenCNP under Windows. I am thinking of replacing it with an intel Atom based PC with a 12V power supply and Navigatrix of course. . If my computer had two wifi adapters, one with a good antenna mounded high enough to get to a land Wifi access point, can I share the connection on the other wifi adapter as a 'wireless hot spot", so tablets and phones can see it? If I have a 3G modem connected same question. |

http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Documentation/hostapd - a bit technical but with detailed instructions. Have not it tried myself yet, but seen it work in some else's computer. |
