How to create a tethering hotspot with an SSH connection

How to create a tethering hotspot with an SSH connection

There are reasons why people prefer SSH connections. Only the safety factor is certain when using a WLAN network. Because using a WiFi network is not entirely secure and can be eavesdropped with various programs, but if you use an SSH or VPN intermediary, the eavesdropping will never happen.

But there are also those that combine a cellular network with an SSH connection, which of course has a specific purpose and I don’t want to go into it any further here. What is safe in this article is to discuss things so that this SSH connection can be used for tethering or as a hotspot.

Who knows, the user wants to share the connection on the computer with mobile devices, but on the computer through an SSH connection that cannot be channeled with any hotspot generator program. The only way to do this isChange the connection.

The purpose of SSH connection conversion

SSH connections can only be used to open websites and download things, and most work with the help of programs like Deputy as a liaison. The connection is not used for everything, including PING on CMD and shows RTO (Request timed out).

The solution to make the SSH connection usable for all programs including CMD is to convert it to a normal connection that is routed by the adapter. The adapter is the one that channels the connection from SSH and does not affect the speed or is clearly a replacement for similar programs Deputy.

Methods of converting connections

At the moment there are 2 methods that are very powerful. But please also note that all of these methods are safe and will not harm anything as their function is only to channel connections. The first is to use the program’s help SockenToTap, and the second is to use the program MultiSSH.

The two methods have the same method of converting SSH connections and require that the user First install the TAP adapter so you can use it. However, from a functional point of view, using the SocksToTap program is more effective as it supports two types of connection protocols.

Using SocksToTap

Not as difficult as expected as the user only has to set a few things. So if the current connection conditions are SSH and use the Proxifier program as the connection. Then the user just has to find out which port the proxy is connected to. Examples like this.

Overview of the proxy polling port

It is proven above that I am using a proxy to connect to port 1080. Therefore the SocksToTap must also be filled with port 1080. Then simply select it as you like in the log area, choose as a suggestion TCP because it is more stable. After that, just press the START button and wait until the connection has been successfully converted to the TAP adapter.

Using MultiSSH

This is not a program just used to channel connections, but more complete as it can enter SSH information directly. So before opening MultiSSH, make sure that the connection condition is not using SSH as MultiSSH is used as the connector for everything.

After opening MultiSSH, users can enter SSH information like host, username, and others. Then in Multi Just choose 1 SSH only. Then im mode, select as Tap Adapter. Click START and wait for the connection to be established.

Hotspot Maker program

To do this, users can use any program, such as: associate, mHotspot, or Baidu hotspot. Choose based on user preferences. If the WiFi network used on other devices feels slow, try another hotspot creation program.

I prefer Baidu Hotspot because it’s light and easy to set up. In my opinion, the connection is evenly distributed and not too slow. It depends on how fast the user’s SSH connection is at the time. This is because all hotspot generator programs seem to share connections to other devices by giving high priority to speed on the computer. This way, the connection on the computer will not be slow even if you are using tethering.

Users can choose from the above two methods which are the easiest to do to convert the connection, but in my opinion it is very easy to use MultiSSH because the program is very simple but the features are very good. In the meantime, when you use SocksToTap you will have to open a lot of programs.

Again, remember that the above two methods require a TAP adapter. And to get it is very easy, users just need to install the program OpenVPN and the TAP adapter will be installed on the computer immediately.

Without the TAP adapter, the SSH connection cannot be converted, so the hotspot generator program cannot detect what type of network to create. To download SocksToTap and MultiSSH, I made them in one package. Click the banner below to download it.
