DIY Instructables
Books
Free as in speech
- Wireless Networking In The Developing World - third edition published 2013
- Looks very thorough and up to date. We should probably all read this!
- If you read one of these books, read this one.
- 520 pages.
- Only available in PDF. We should convert it to epub so we can more easily read it on the go.
- Building a Rural Wireless Mesh Network - A DIY guide to planning and building a Freifunk based mesh network - published 2007
- Exactly what it says in the title. Very step-by-step and not very technical.
- Wireless Mesh Networks - published 2011
- A set of technical articles compiled into a book.
- Looks like it has some interesting chapters, like "Trends and Challenges for Quality of Service and Quality of Experience for Wireless Mesh Networks" and "Secure Routing in Wireless Mesh Networks".
- How To Accelerate Your Internet - published 2006
- Sounds like a scam but it's actually not. Look at the table of contents.
- Has chapters on everything from policy work to OSI models, squid caching and traffic shaping.
Free as in beer
- Intended for HAM radio operators studying for the license exam.
- Probably not the best thing to spend time reading when learning about wifi unless you're really interested in the fundamentals of radio.
Non-free
- Building Wireless Community Networks - Rob Flickenger published 2001
- Doesn't specifically talk about meshes.
- Over 10 years old.
- We have an ebook copy.
