| Anyway, the diffusion and access to the Net isn’t still disposable for everyone: DSL facilities aren’t available in many cities and the ISPs impose expensive rates/costs to grant connectivity. The creation of civic nets, in which the users can have free access to web sites and to the on line e-services, surfing freely and without any cost web sites dedicated to institutional, educational, tourist, commercial and social activities, which need a constant and direct dialogue with the people, is today made possible by NETSUKUKU Open Source software. His first aim is the implementation of a global mesh network, completely independent from Internet, in which the single PCs, communicating each other through radio frequencies, become automatically the nodes/access points of the net and in such way give their contribution to make it alive and, at the same time, to expand it, exactly as in a fractal scheme. |

| - every user to go not only through the Net of their city but also through those located in all the other cities which, once they are inter-connected, create a kind of global Network, parallel to Internet, which can indefinitely expand, completely without the support of ISPs; - till a maximum of 256 hostnames to be recorded and supported by each PC (i.e. node of the Net). The simplest way to create/gain the Netsukuku Net is to install a common wi-fi card inside your own PC launch the Netsukuku program, freely downloadable from Internet. Obviously a larger diffusion of the Netsukuku dedicated network can be allowed by the wi-fi coverage of wide urban and rural areas: in the market there are many and different solutions of wireless devices, all valid and cheap (routers, access points, antennas). |
