Mesh Networks and reliability
I am going to ramble here, It's the best way I know of to begin the process of
forming solid ideas (called a plan).
It's really not a new idea, my first experience with the internet was through a microwave
connection to MIT, some 10 miles from our building (I believe one repeater, which just
happened to be on op of the hill our building was on) back around 1986.
One idea that I am tossing around in my head is ... why not make every node have two
modes, repeater and terminal node.
Mesh Networks becoming commercial product:
This is a ground floor opportunity for what I think is going to become the next
great thing in networking.
Here's one company's blog on what they are doing with mesh networking.

All I'm trying to do here is start a discussion, and I think perhaps this is a good subject for
the forums chat server.
Anyone game?
