The project
In January 2006, the WNDW team released the first edition of Wireless Networking in the Developing World. Since then, the project has grown to include a bunch of new resources, including:
- A revised and expanded second English edition of the book
- Various translations, including Spanish, French, Arabic, and Italian
- A second Spanish edition of the book
- Updated wiki and discussion groups
- Several new case studies contributed by our readers
We now planning to translate the new edition into Spanish, French, Portuguese, and Arabic. We are also compiling training materials to be used in conjunction with the book to spread the knowledge of low-cost outdoor wireless networking.
Our goal
The goal of the WNDW project is to help everyone get the resources they need to build wireless networks that solve real communication problems. Help us meet our goal by spreading the word and sharing your own network stories!
