"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.

Relay

Relays just push the signal further, they sit on your roof or in other high places.
Tip: You can turn your relay into a server that hosts something!
