## Run on Startup
|
||||
The `wihotspot` GUI uses `create_ap` to create and manage access points. This service and core logic was originally created by
|
||||
[@oblique](http://github.com/oblique), and are now maintained in this
|
||||
repository.
|
||||
|
||||
Start the hotspot service on startup (using your saved configuration) with:
|
||||
|
||||
systemctl enable create-ap
|
||||
|
||||
