  Are you looking for Meshtastic?

  Sounds interesting. I know there’s technologies like LorA and BLE that create networks on different frequencies other than what standard wifi uses. But they don’t really have a lot of bandwidth.

    Sounds like it would specifically be APRS if he was. Neat protocol. Unfortunately no encrypted traffic was allowed last time I looked into it.

    They have their hotspots but for anywhere that there isn’t a hotspot coverage they do have T-Mobile coverage as backup and from what I understand they have unlimited talk text and 30 gigabytes of high speed data for $20 per month

      You’re not getting any high-speed data from LoRa. The only thing you’re getting is a few characters of text. It’s great for off-grid messaging or transmitting GPS coordinates or other minute amounts of data.

  I was really excited for CJDNS (not to be confused with “Domain Name System”) at one time. It’s a mesh networking protocol. And they’d established an “Internet 2” (as in, a sequel to “The Internet”) based on the CJDNS protocol called “Hyperborea.”

  I haven’t heard anything about CJDNS in a good while now. I wouldn’t be surprised if there were other efforts looking to do something roughly the same, but I’m not up to date on anything more recent.

  Could you mean network radios?
