Can I use VPN through hotspot?

How to use VPN hotspot without root?

Hi, I am using android device with rooted firmware. I have the following problem: I have a wifi hotspot which can be accessed without login. Can I access the internet through this hotspot without being connected to the mobile network. My question is how to do it, for example: My device has a wifi hotspot, on this hotspot there is a router, how can I connect my computer to this router ?I thought that the hotspot router can be connected to a modem and then the router to my computer.

Hello! I'm afraid that it is impossible. If the phone has a root access, you can easily install and use a VPN app. It will encrypt your traffic with strong keys, so it won't be visible to ISP. After installing this app, you will need to setup connection to the internet via your smartphone. But this process will be not as simple as when your phone has not root access. I think that there are a lot of tutorials about this topic on the Internet. I hope that this helps!

You could use any Android VPN application which uses the VPN protocol. And it works like a charm. You can even do it with root access.

I am not sure if you can get it directly from your hotspot (ie through a modem).

How to tunnel a hotspot through a VPN?

What's the easiest way to set up an AP that's tunneled through a VPN?

I don't want to use bridged mode, I want to be in both WLANs at the same time. One hotspot would provide the data and one the access point. Any idea how this is possible, without adding to much effort?

My hotspot is based on the open source software, wrt-ap-mini.e. My goal is to provide a simple hotspot based in a small r-pi with no fancy features and no need of any software (just a small web interface).

I have two APs set up right now, both connected to a bridge, so they can talk to each other and also access to internet. At the moment, the APs work fine but I am really looking for the solution to have one AP with the hotspot functionality and connected to internet and the second one to provide Internet only, with no public facing data. At this point, what I want is: the hotspot works fine, without using the internet connection of the APs. the main AP offers the data service to clients. the users can see the internet connection on the main AP. Is this possible? What configuration changes do I need? Thank you in advance. Andres. The problem is when you try to connect to the WLAN card is not set up for routing, which normally means it does not support bridging. Since you are bridging two different networks, that is not what you want.

As you mention, the solution is quite simple and depends on how many APs you have and which one of them does the hotspot role. If you have 2 APs, you can still do it using the bridged method. It will work perfectly fine, but you will have your public IP addresses bound to the AP that does not have a hotspot role. It can also give you headaches later on, since you can not always see what IP you have, because that is not an easy issue to solve on your side.

The good solution is to have only one AP and have one of the APs perform as hotspot, but that is not possible on your case because you have no hotspot role.

I have been able to get hotspot connection up and running in my Windows 8.

1 tablet, but only with limited success.

I am having a really hard time figuring out if I can connect from outside the wifi network, for example, using a VPN, using my phone, using my laptop, using my phone and my laptop at the same time. Can it be done? Thanks! You can't. In all cases, the client software used to set up the wireless hotspot needs to be able to "see" the VPN connection. The user interface for setting up a hotspot doesn't provide that functionality.
