I just bought a Chromecast and unfortunately it requires at least three devices:
- The Chromecast
- A device to control the Chromecast (in my case a tablet)
- A Wi-Fi router
I was wondering if there is a solution/app where I can setup a virtual router on my Android device that broadcasts a Wi-Fi signal but can also emulate a network connection between said router and the Android device, cutting out the need for a physical Wi-Fi router.
I know I can create hotspot with my mobile and use that as a router but I think its a bit clunky and not ideal for streaming.
I guess I am not sure what you asking here... WiFi hotspot is EXACTLY what you are looking for, it turns an android phone into a wireless router. If using hotspot is "clunky and not ideal" then how else do you propose to connect or what do you want to connect to? EDIT: Nevermind, I just noticed this question was over a year old. – acejavelin – 2016-05-16T02:13:20.787
