Yeah, 'cause routers only work with Linux.Get an old PC, a wired network card, and a USB Wifi adapter.
Install Linux.
Done.
No point reinventing the wheel; simply borrow one and reverse engineer the hardware and software, it won't take you more than a couple of hours, after all, they're not very big are they. Order some parts and put them all together on a bit of stripboard, now sit back and enjoy you homemade wireless router. There's nothing more satisfying than building something yourself and at a fraction of the cost of buying one ready-built. I built my own 4k smart TV using this method, it works great and saved me a whole heap of cash. Let us know how you get onI want to make a home based wifi router? Please help me with a circuit diagram
Well, then, please post instructions how to build one using Windows.Yeah, 'cause routers only work with Linux.

Sorry. No code visibility, no security. Good way to get pwned.I'd start with a Raspberry Pi...
You're done! If you're curious, check out the link.
- Get a Raspberry Pi and a wireless dongle
- Load Windows 10
- Open "Network Connections"
- Set the wireless adapter to share the Internet connection...
- Initialize the wireless network with netsh (SSID, password, etc..., "netsh wlan set yournetwork mode=allow ssid=”CoolName” key=”Y0ur_Pwd!!”"))
- Start the wireless network, again with netsh ("netsh wlan start yournetwork")
