Wifi hotspot active

Post by nochedelmono » 04 Jul 2013 22:29

Hi Martin,

Any chance of adding a wifi hotspot active/inactive condition to the next version? Keep up the good work.

Hi,

What exactly do you mean by active/inactive? You can use condition WiFi Connected or WiFi Available to do some checks.
Do you want to check whether a configured WiFi network is disabled and the WiFi supplicant will not attempt to connect to this network?

Regards,
Martin

Sorry Martin, I should have been clearer. I would like to check to see if the phone's own wifi hotspot is tuned on, that is whether the phone is acting as a wifi AP. Thanks.

I'd like to second this request; a trigger when the AP is turned off so WiFi could be turned back on would be awesome

I second this as well.

When I am finished using my phone as a mobile hotspot, I often forget to turn on the WiFi. Then, when I return home, I am using mobile data instead of my home WiFi. Such a waste of time and money.

The trigger and condition are available under name WiFi Tethering State (unofficial, might not work on all devices).

Obviously, I think I'm kinda blind.

Thanks Martin.

Does it work even without the use of tethering?

Sorry, I don't understand your question.
The condition should return false when tethering is not active.
