Hey, actually i need to generate an idea using arduino, so i want to know if it's possible for an arduino to work like a hotspot ? Not as an actual one, but to make a small network to know how many users in the area and gather their account id.
it is possible to create hotspot using an arduino as a WiFi Access point and server
however, I think you are looking for functionality similar to wireshark to monitor network traffic??

Thanks for replying, And yes something like that .. i don't just need the arduino to count the number of persons who enter the room, but also to know their identitiy when they connect to the wifi network
use RFID?
Exactly, but without a RFID tag or card just by using phones
could you do a bluetooth scan to detect phones in area?
