Connectivity is a very vital aspect of this system,and honestly that's what the mesh network provides as it'll be a very useful system in Africa and most 3rd world countries were poverty has eaten so deep into their system so as to connect the unconnected in those parts of the world,it'll even be much more better powered by our own blockchain technology

I came across this,and I think it's a proposed blockcahin powered Mesh network

The problem!

Various remote territories are not sufficiently productive for Internet Service Providers to create a  framework. Range extenders do a good job of filling in dead zones, but typically provide only half the bandwidth that you get from your main router.  So to resolve this problem, we have our savior “The Mesh Networks”. The mesh network also resolves Network Congestion Collapse issues.


What are Mesh Networks?

These are groups of smart gadgets (telephones, tablets, etc.), which interface with each other's Wi-Fi so that web extends and availability can be enhanced.  Wireless mesh networks provide a network connection that is spread out among dozens or even hundreds of wireless mesh nodes that link to each other to share the network connection across a large area. In the event of failure of some nodes, the remaining nodes could continue to communicate with each other, and, if necessary, serve as uplinks for the other nodes.


How they work?

There's a main router that connects directly to a modem and a series of satellite modules, or nodes, that have been placed throughout an area. Each node serves as a hop point for other nodes in the system. This helps the nodes farthest from the router to deliver a strong Wi-Fi signal as they are talking to other nodes and not relying on one-to-one communications with the router.


This question might be the solution!

Mesh networks are not only just for singular person use but these mesh networks will enable worldwide internet coverage, even to the areas where no service providers deliver internet services or where it is costly for ISPs to create a setup.
Can Blockchain evolve this process through any means?
Can blockchain devise a way which can ensure more efficient and effective delivery of wi-fi signals?
Can blockchain create a Global Extranet that can allow access to authorized peers only?
Is blockchain the possible solution?

If such a blockchain exists then this system will inter-connect homes, cities, countries and eventually the whole wide world.
