Beginners can now create off-grid, encrypted mesh networks for cheap, with applications in emergency communication, sensor monitoring, and more! These mesh networks have been popping up in cities all over the world, and this talk will go over everything a beginner needs to run or build their own nodes.



If you've ever wanted to legally create off-grid, encrypted mesh networks that can span over a hundred miles, you can get started with Meshtastic for around $10.



This talk will serve as a beginner user's guide to Meshtastic, covering everything from hardware basics to advanced software configuration. We will explore making custom Meshtastic hardware, real-world results from deploying Meshtastic in Los Angeles, and attacks against mesh networks.



Attendees will learn about LoRa, Meshtastic node and antenna options, software setup and configuration to extend its functionality, and real-world deployments of remote nodes.
