Is there a way to create a hotspot that doesn't have a password?The hotspot command  of nmcli : wifi hotspot [ifname ifname] [con-name name] [ssid SSID]       [band {a | bg}] [channel channel] [password password]does not allow to have a empty password: it givesError: Invalid 'password': '' is not valid WPA PSK.I guess there is a way to edit the configuration files used by nmcli to generate a hotspot to turn it into a password-free hotspot.If nmcli is not able to do this, what other tools would do it? Thank you
How to generate a hotspot that does not requires password?
wifi;networkmanager;wpa supplicant;wifi hotspot;nmcli
It is not possible to create an open hotspot through wifi hotspot command , because nmcli will generate a password for you (WPA or wep) , the --show-secrets option will be used to print the password.The easy way to create an open wifi-hotspot is using create_ap command:To install it run:git clone https://github.com/oblique/create_apcd create_apmake installStart the service:systemctl start create_apTo create an open access point run:create_ap wlan0 eth0 MyAccessPointor if you are connected through Wifi:create_ap wlan0 wlan0 MyAccessPoint
