Freifunk

Past, present & future

This lecture is about freifunk, an initiative to create mesh-nets in urban and rural areas using mostly Wi-Fi technology and free software. I will talk about the techniques to create a mesh-net, present the current (OLSR) and upcoming (B.A.T.M.A.N.) routing software as well as some other aspects like goals, legal and social issues.

A live demonstration will be part of the lecture.
