# "What is this?"
I'm building a radio mesh network, kinda like CyberPony to democratize WiFi and have a private and free form of the internet. Most websites hosted will be like the early internet at first, but maybe as time goes on speeds will be better.

# Nodes
**Note:** Prices are in AUD.

## Relay
Relays just push the signal further, they sit on your roof or in other high places.  
**Cost:** $75.25
