FAQ

Q: How does Meshtastic differ from a standard cellular network?

A: Unlike cellular networks that rely on a centralized infrastructure of towers owned by service providers, Meshtastic uses a decentralized mesh network. Each node acts as a relay, passing messages from one to another until they reach their destination, making it independent of commercial telecommunications providers.

Q: Do I need an internet connection to use Meshtastic?

A: No, you do not need an active internet connection to communicate once your mesh network is established. Meshtastic transmits data via radio frequencies over the LoRa (Long Range) protocol, allowing your devices to communicate directly with other nodes in the mesh.

Q: What kind of hardware is required to get started?

A: To use Meshtastic, you need a compatible radio device, often referred to as a node. These are typically low-power LoRa development boards that run the Meshtastic firmware. You then pair this hardware with your Android or iOS device via Bluetooth to interface with the network.
