Forming an Internet Resiliency Club

Europe is facing increased internet disruptions due to geopolitical tensions and climate change, prompting the need for improved internet resilience.

Internet Resiliency Clubs are volunteer groups using LoRa radios and Meshtastic software to maintain communications without centralized infrastructure.

These clubs can help restore internet connectivity in crises, with volunteers using cheap, low-power, low-bandwidth technology.

The article provides a detailed guide on setting up an Internet Resiliency Club, including equipment recommendations and operational guidance.

LoRa radios are highlighted for their low cost, ease of use, and suitability for emergency communications.

Volunteer-driven initiatives such as these are crucial, especially as governments and businesses may not take preemptive measures until a crisis occurs.
