Join us for a hands-on Meshtastic primer!
Setting up a Meshtastic device is quick and easy, but we’ll take a look under the hood at all the switches and features. Based on the LPWAN protocol, messaging between nodes is text only, but allows long range, encryption, and mesh capability for a resilient chat net even when phones and internet are down. This is the tool you want when disaster hits, or when out in remote areas where cell coverage falls short. If you have a Meshtastic device, bring it along. If you don’t, come learn what’s out there and what works best for you.
