A MeshBox is a simple, low cost, standalone, embedded PC based hardware/software device. When it is turned on, it automatically becomes a node in the local community network, providing access to the community network and the internet, and also extending the community network. A benefit to the individual, and to the community.

There is also a sofware only version which can be run on old hardware.

Truly kerosene on the community network fire?
