Muniwireless: Mesh networks help developing areas Archives
This story contains a lot of favourites for me.
It comes from MuniWireless.com, which is one of my favourite sites for news on public and community networking. It talks about Mesh Wireless which is definitely amongst my flavours of the month, hwen it comes to favourite technologies, and it deals with wireless in the developing world, which some of my readers may have noticed is something I believe strongly in.
Basically our friends at LocustWorld have gotten involved in a Mesh networking project in Borneo using their MeshBoxes to provide broadband to rural areas. There is little information in the article, and no link to further reading.
I want to know more….
Hi Tom,
Greetings from Borneo!
We are indeed deploying LocustWorld’s meshboxes (have four up and running in the city of Kuching) in this part of the world. More information will be up soon but do let me know if I can be any assistance in the interim.
