Guys I need to find an old utility

[dumiku]

Back in the day, I used to create a hotspot using my wifi connection through an external wifi card, the program made it so easy, all I had to do was:
select the source
select the output
And boom like magic, connected to a wifi, I could then share my mac connection to other devices

I really need to find it, I can recall the name, I can probably mess around with native sharing, but this is much clean and fast

hoping that it was update to x64, if it was only x86, I used to use it since Maverick time if I recall.

Why do I want to that?
Well if only my mac is allowed to connect to a wifi, I can then share that connection to my phone, or other devices

Macs are not able to connect to one Wi-Fi network and simultaneously broadcast another Wi-Fi network using the same hardware... and Macs don't have driver support for USB external Wi-Fi adapters. The Internet Sharing feature only works if your network connection is wired ethernet.

Well maybe with the new OS version when they drop USB external Wi-FI adapters, in older version of macOS it is possible, unless I am mistaken it with Linux, but I remember doing something like that

Macs use to let you use Modems, so why not external USB Wi-Fi?

But I think you right, I probably do not remember the right OS, so I will assume in this case that it was on Linux (Debian)

I will do some research based on that

External USB Wi-Fi adapters definitely used to work. I have no idea whether it's still the case, but I've personally used one in the past (several years ago). At a guess, the drivers probably never made it into the 64-bit era.

Exactly it is the 64bit era that most of them stop working, but I need this to use with a 32bit compatible OS, I believe prior to Big Sur (macOS 11).
Some where still working with a few tweaks around in Catalina also.
