Laptop, Linux Ubuntu 14.04. I connect to Wi-Fi. I want to create an access point "from a laptop" so that traffic is received from another Wi-Fi point.
How to implement?

It all depends on the WiFi adapter in the laptop. If he knows how to work in access point mode, then you need to use applications to raise WiFi AP .

insert a second (usb for example) adapter and configure hostapd, but in general, of course, use crutches on bicycles

There are routers that can connect to Wi-Fi networks and transmit traffic through themselves

Why can’t you immediately use the point from where you are going to receive wi-fi?
