@kphanipavan brought us many wifi4~6 options. Now Linux-router script can create wifi3~wifi6 ap.

Currently wifi4~6 usually require applying tedious and long cli parameters (differs by hardware), to make full use of hardware performance. See examples in following posts:

• #61
• #82

(maybe in future we'll figure out smarter ways to simplify that process)

Note that some cutting-edge Wifi features (eg. Wifi 6 and some options) strongly depends on hostapd built with specific flags enabled and compatible hardware.

0.7.6

• Explictly ban unwanted forwarding
• Detect firewalld and make sure it won't interfere
• Some internal code changes:
  • rename GATEWAY to GATEWAY4
  • use array for iptables custom chain
  • improve nm running judgement. use dbus also
