Meraki has gone green with Wi-Fi, announcing the first solar powered outdoor Wi-Fi access kit. When used together the Meraki Outdoor repeater and the Meraki Solar accessory can cover entire neighborhoods with Wi-Fi access.
For a minimal outlay of money this new technology lets several households reliably share one high speed connection. The Solar accessory uses the sun to power the repeater, meaning it does not have to be connected to an electrical source and the solar power is distributed throughout the day so you don’t experience blackout periods.
Formally launched just a few months ago the system currently has over 1000 networks in 35 countries and is providing access to approximately 40,000 users.

I like this product…an easy way to connect more homes without classic cable burocracy…lets hope it won’t cost much either
