Mt Barkers First Node

Plans are afoot to start building an community wireless network from scratch across the Mt Barker area beginning with a free community hotspot located near the town’s center sponsored by Darren Roebuck of Adelaide Hills Electronics.

Currently, members are needed to volunteer their time to help get this exciting new project off to a good start and it is hoped you will offer some good advice, ideas and discussion on how to both drum up local support and ways to expand the network.

Although, it may be impractical to link the network back to the larger metropolitan network in the short/medium-term, it does offer an excellent opportunity to develop a working model of community wireless networks in small communities.
