Share internet and local network over Wifi adapter

Hi.
I buy a wifi adapter and want to use it share internet (that is provided over ethernet) and also have the possibility of communication between the devices (i mean those in the wifi and those over ethernet, that all can talk each other).

How i can acomplish that?
this is my wifi adapter

What i can do?
Thanks!

Look for the “Hotspot” button like this one, this one is in Cinnamon Desktop, but you should have it on the Gnome Control Center

thanks
Yep, i tried the Hotspot button in Gnome. And it is working except that my Rpi zero W does not connect…
Then i try “Linux-Wifi-Hotspot” that here my rpi zero w connect but it lost a lot of package if i try a ping from my pc to the rpi.
Maybe could be some networking involved here??

Yes, sounds like to have a network mismatch, either the rpi, your pc or both.

Do you mean something which allows you to browse and transfer files between devices connected to your local network? You might want to look at KDE Connect (kdeconnect) or its Gnome equivalent gnome-shell-extension-gsconnect - both are in Manjaro’s Extra repository.

KDE Connect | KDE Connect: A project that enables all your devices to communicate with each other.

GSConnect/gnome-shell-extension-gsconnect: KDE Connect implementation for GNOME

i want to be in the same network, so i can use SSH.
I have a pc with ethernet and a wifi adapter (the one i buy) and a rpi. I dont have wifi in that room. Then i want to extend the network of the LAN through the WIFI so the pc and rpi can see each other and i can SSH rpi.

This forum post here discusses the reverse - Internet through Wlan → shared to LAN
Should not be difficult to adapt the procedure.

The key ingredient might be dnsmasq, of which I’m not sure whether it is present by default
and also ipv4 (and perhaps ) ipv6 forwarding need to be enabled

It seems to me that you probably need a wifi-capable modem/router rather than a basic wifi adapter.

Perhaps you need to better understand the difference:

I hope this helps. Cheers.
