Virtual Router is a “Wi-Fi Virtual Access Point” for Windows. Allows you to translate Wi-Fi-modules and "whistles" in the "forwarding" mode, thereby "turning" them into an analog router.
Creates "access points" directly from the interface - without "tinkering in the console." Uses WPA2 encryption technology for protection. Forwards traffic from Wi-Fi wireless access devices to LAN, Dial-up, etc. network cards. It has open source code.

- Switches the specified wireless access device to the "forwarding" mode;
- Creates a Wi-Fi network with the specified SSID and password WPA2;
- Redirects traffic from it to the network card and back;

- Logs all intranet sessions and writes them to a log file;
- Turns off the "Forwarding" mode for the device used when closing.
