Projects/OLPCJamaicaInfrastructure

The project's goal is to set up the server architecture and test it for mesh and APs for schools in Jamaica. Most school buildings are designed with heavy concrete due to frequent hurricanes in the Caribbean. This presents challenges for wireless connectivity. The team will test out connectivity options in different environments both on the student/teacher side and on the service provider side such as Flow or Digicel.
