| Jan 9, 2020 at 1:35 | comment | added | Big Bird | HUGE UPDATE: Open Vwr DOES support the pi 4 officially, but from my knowledge, it will only support it in Chinese. I highly recomend watching this video on how to set it up. (youtube.com/watch?v=Q6bAZ0QZC90). Please correct me if i am wrong, because currently, translating is tedious. Thanks to @M. Rostami for telling me to use Open Vwr in the first place. You are very appreciated. | |

I think you search for SoftAp mode. You have two interfaces on wlan0, one in managed (client) type managed and one in master (AP) type __ap. Connect your managed interface to your router. Use master interface for hostpad and your own Wi-Fi Access Point. (Not tested on RPi4)

| Jan 6, 2020 at 15:13 | comment | added | Charemer | As already stated, the question is unclear. Title suggests that you want the RPi to provide a Wireless Access Point. Question says that you want the RPi to connect to a Wifi Access point. Please clarify. | |

Punctuation problem.

| Jan 6, 2020 at 12:41 | comment | added | Mohi Rostami | "I do not want to use a secondary router; just using the wireless capabilities of the 4B." By this section, you mean that you don't have any wireless devices and you want to create an AP for your wireless clients. || Although by this part, "The 4B would connect to a wifi network wirelessly, then I would connect the Pi network.", I realized that you want to make Raspberry Pi as a wireless bridge device. || Please make it clear. | |

| Jan 6, 2020 at 4:31 | comment | added | Milliways | You seem to be unclear whether you want an Access Point (WHY?) or connect to a router or what you expect to do with the resultant. See How to set up networking/WiFi to setup networking - there are dozens of Access Point tutorials, so it seems futile to point to one which you claim doesn't work. | |
