| Resources: NetEquality provides resources for governmental agencies, communities,
non-profits, CDCs, and housing authorities throughout the world to
install their wireless networks.
Customers: We work with low-income property owners and managers to
design, install and
monitor the complete system, sharing
one or more DSL connections. Typically, the cost per apartment is less
than $25 to install and less than $1 for recurring monthly DSL costs. |
News: Recently an article appeared in the NYT. It is a great introduction to Meraki and NetEquality.

Technology: Our
networks create a wireless "mesh" to spread a DSL connection over an
entire apartment
complex, neighborhood or other housing community. Each wireless access point can talk to its neighbors and
repeat the signal back to the DSL.
Installation: We use the highly-acclaimed Meraki Mini access
point in a secure housing
that simply plugs into any wall outlet. See our
complete Installation
Guide for detailed instructions on setting up and managing a
wireless network.
Mapping & Monitoring. We also offer
extended mapping and
monitoring of your network so you'll be able to see how it is
performing at any
time.
