general, we find that the UHF packet radio has a range of
about 10x that of Wi-Fi when deployed indoors with
omni-directional antennae. This means it has a range of about
a block in a suburban or urban setting compared with Wi-Fi's
range of about one house or apartment.</div>

Awsome progress Paul , i am following your progress for some time,
what you think about this " bug/ feature" <br>

Google is unnecessarily hampering their efforts because it does
not support the device-to-device mode of Wi-Fi chips in its
Android software (a complaint registered with Google as “</span><a href="https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=82" style="text-indent:0px;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;font-variant:normal;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;padding:0px;vertical-align:baseline;line-height:20px;color:rgb(32,111,150);text-transform:none;font-size:14px;white-space:normal;margin:0px;font-family:NHG,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;text-decoration:underline;border:0px;word-spacing:0px" target="_blank">Android bug #82</a><span style="text-indent:0px;letter-spacing:normal;font-variant:normal;text-align:start;font-style:normal;display:inline!important;font-weight:normal;float:none;line-height:20px;text-transform:none;font-size:14px;white-space:normal;font-family:NHG,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;word-spacing:0px">”). That means
before a device can become an active part of a mesh network, a
user must bypass Android’s security controls, or “root” the
device, by installing special software. Unrooted devices can use
connectivity provided by a mesh network, but they can’t help
expand its coverage.</span></blockquote>

is very interesting too ;)<br></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div style>We think so, too. As a store-and-forward protocol, Rhizome avoids a lot of the traditional problems that mesh networks face, in particular exponentially increasing probability of packet loss over multiple hops. Rhizome turns out to be at times annoyingly reliable in its delivery, delivering data at the first opportunity sometimes months after it was sent, in the event of networks that have been partitioned for that long.</div>
