  1. == Netsukuku and the civic networks ==
  2. {{{
  3. Cities and Institutions are showing a growing interest in e-government
  4. projects finilised in providing on line services to the citizens through
  5. Internet.
  6. For example are disposable:
  7. - school related activities (enrolments, cultural and educational
  8. programs),
  9. - news, local radio and televisions
  10. - guides for expositions and events, cultural and tourist information
  11. - discussion forums, social and cultural activities
  12. However, the diffusion and access to the Net isn't still disposable for
  13. everyone: DSL facilities aren't available in many cities and the ISPs impose
  14. expensive rates/costs to grant connectivity.
  15. The creation of civic nets, in which the users can have free access to web
  16. sites and to the on line e-services, surfing freely and without any cost web
  17. sites dedicated to institutional, educational, tourist, commercial and social
  18. activities, which need a constant and direct dialogue with the people, is
  19. today made possible by NETSUKUKU Open Source software.
  20. His first aim is the implementation of a global mesh network, completely
  21. independent from Internet, in which the single PCs, communicating each other
  22. through radio frequencies, become automatically the nodes/access points of the
  23. net and in such way give their contribution to make it alive and, at the same
  24. time, to expand it, exactly as in a fractal scheme.
  25. The NETSUKUKU routing system allows:
  26. - every user to go not only through the Net of their city but also through
  27. those located in all the other cities which, once they are inter-connected,
  28. create a kind of global Network, parallel to Internet, which can
  29. indefinitely expand, completely without the support of ISPs;
  30. - till a maximum of 256 hostnames to be recorded and supported by each PC
  31. (i.e. node of the Net).
  32. On the Netsukuku Net everybody wishing to offer digital contents/information,
  33. will be able to share them simply from his or her PC. The more of actors
  34. represented in the system is high in number, the more will be granted
  35. dialogue, circulation of different ideas, democratic process and the full
  36. right of citizenship inside the society of information.
  37. Last but not least, inside Netsukuku Net users will have the chance to get
  38. through the Internet free of cost: in fact any node can share with the
  39. Netsukuku Net his connectivity to Internet and get from other users the
  40. bandwidth they didn't use in any the moment.
  41. === How to realize a wireless Netsukuku Net ===
  42. Netsukuku is an architecture of flexible net and will create autonomously an
  43. efficient wireless mesh network among PCs equipped with radio connection
  44. devices. The simplest way to create/join the Netsukuku Net is to install a
  45. common wi-fi card inside your own PC and launch the Netsukuku program, freely
  46. downloadable from Internet. The flux of data will reach the wished
  47. destination, going through the same nodes (PCs or Access Points in which
  48. Netsukuku as been installed inside), interconnected among them. Obviously a
  49. larger diffusion of the Netsukuku dedicated network can be achieved by the
  50. wi-fi coverage of wide urban and rural areas: in the market there are many and
  51. different solutions of wireless devices, all valid and cheap (routers, access
  52. points, omni directional antennas).
  53. For more information or any request of assistance Netsukuku community is
  54. available on the net at the following site:
