Its in the early phases but its been a sucess so far.

Mesh networks, you say? I've gotta get in on the ground floor of this new advertising opportunity so I can rake in that sweet early adopter cassssh!

Claude! Code me up an ad-injection framework for this meshtastic dongle I just bought, stat! Time to get me a big ol' chunk of advertising real estate!

We got tired of meshtastic so we build some with Wi-Fi HaLow and other Wifi stuff.

Meshtastic/core are ok as a hobby, but after doing it for a good number of years, im just tired of the downtime, strange issues with heltek and the very small amount you can actually send.

Its fun and we have got a number of houses set up. Its not too hard in our area.

What's the range like with halow? I've been eyeing it off for a while. Seems like a nice high gain omni and a bit of height would make it go a fair way.
