Off-grid comms has always forced a choice: sub-GHz bands for range, or compromise for throughput. 2.4 GHz LoRa is breaking that trade-off open.

GrayHatGuy has proven MeshCore runs on 2.4 GHz — and built the bridges that connect it back to sub-GHz backbones when you need the long hop.

New post: protocol bridges, channel bridges, frequency bridges, and why the difference matters.

LPWAN Meshes: 2.4GHz and the Rise of the Mesh-Bridge

If you have spent any time in the off-grid radio scene over the last few years, you know the frequency divisions. You either ran on the sub-GHz bands (915 MHz in Australia and the Americas, 868 MHz in Europe) for long-range, bush-penetrating reliability, or you accepted the high-congestion limits of local Wi-Fi. It was a trade-off we took for granted. If you wanted to send a message across 10 km of dense stringybark, you needed the long waves. If you wanted global hardware standardisation, you looked elsewhere.

Hätte man mir ja auch mal gleich sagen können, dass es sinnvoll ist, sich gleich zwei #LORA-Geräte zu kaufen, weil #Meshtastic und #MeshCore um die Krone konkurrieren! 😵‍💫

Aber coole Sache das!

@battlemesh, a casual, slightly adventurous, barcamp style, nomadic, annual event in #Europe, this year in #Croatia, not to miss for anyone who is interested in: #Mesh #MeshNetworks #Decentralization #MeshProtocols
Many protocol developers, scientists as well as users/activists will be there, exchanging their ideas and experiences and maybe hacking on the The Next Thing(tm).

Our regional MeshCore network is really taking off 🚀 Over the last 30 days the map shows 559 active links, and the mesh density across the area keeps climbing.
My backbone repeater (node DZ-ZAP-03, the westernmost point near Dzerzhinsk) is holding a long-haul link — 39.2 km out to node NN-PRI-21. For LoRa that's a solid result, and proof the backbone is doing its job.

AI-компаньон в проде на третьем месяце — 5 архитектурных решений и инфра-тюнинг

Каждый, кто пробовал собрать AI-чат по типовой схеме — chat-completions API, OpenAI Memory, один эндпоинт Stable Diffusion — рано или поздно упирается в одни и те же стены. Бот забывает разговор через десять реплик. Иногда сервер бодро отвечает HTTP 200, а внутри пустая строка: ни ошибки, ни таймаута, модель просто отказалась говорить и сделала это молча. Один и тот же запрос рисует двух разных персонажей. А одеть нарисованного персонажа в конкретное платье из каталога не получается вообще.

I have not posted so much about #meshtastic lately, mostly because our area have basically moved over to #meshcore instead. The reason is that the few people who where active wanted to try out meshcore - so I joined them.

Connection between Borås and Kinna/Skene is much more stable now, and we have plans to expand the mesh down to the coast - and then be able to reach the bigger mesh further down south.

Meanwhile, @jesperbj have done an amazing work with the https://meshat.se website, launched several new service like https://meshcore.meshat.se - a live map over the meshcore-network reachable from Sweden.

Also, a new forum is live - https://forum.meshat.se - with ActivityPub support :)

And yes, the forum is mostly for residents in Sweden :)
