Solar powered Wi-Fi system
This is no ordinary Wi-Fi repeater system, this can cover whole neighborhoods with Internet access, and they claim that it would be great fro developing countries, which it will do, but this stuff is just as great for the states or anywhere, because it can send a signal up to 700 feet away.
The great thing about this is that it shows just what can be done, with the solar panels these days, they have come a long way and now we are seeing some new and fantastic ways of utilizing them to replace electric power.
The Meraki Outdoor is an indoor/outdoor repeater that supports high gain and directional antennas and works with other Meraki repeaters to create robust networks. Features include:
Unique industrial design (weatherproof plastics, easy to mount)
Dual SSID supports public and private networks on the same connection
Long-range support (400-700 ft; 6-18 miles with antenna)
2 x 100Mbit Ethernet ports
Low-cost: $99
First solar repeater for the consumer market
Regulates its own energy usage, providing up to 3x energy efficiency
Pricing will be set this summer but the Meraki Solar will clearly be the most affordable option on the market
