Equipping the laptop with cellular phone abilities is not practical, as the usage fees for such service is extremely high in Egypt.

Comment: I guess that this is a misunderstanding, infact a *mesh network* has nothing to do with Cellular phone capability, but mesh networks refer to Wifi mesh networks. So the idea is that the laptops would form an ad-hoc network and even one terminal that has an internet uplink would act as a router for the whole mesh network.
