For a lot of "public" wifi networks, it's not even a firewall, it's that the access points are set to client isolation mode (so the AP only allows clients to talk to the gateway). It's basically an extra security layer on their part to keep customer A from causing problems for customer B. So then you do need your own access point/router. On newer Android devices, you can re-share the wifi with hotspot mode, so don't need any additional equipment. -- Chris Adams <linux@xxxxxxxxxxx> -- _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
