    Wireless ad hoc networks allow devices to connect and share information without routers or access points. They allow for direct device-to-device connections through shared ethernet connections. The technology is useful for low-income schools that lack tools by enabling sharing of files and internet access. Earlier systems like packet radio networks were too slow, so an appropriate technology was needed to connect nodes and forward data at higher speeds while keeping costs low. This helps reduce the digital divide in poor communities by providing a better way to manage information.

    WHY A CHANGE WAS NEEDED?

    Disadventage Why a change was needed?


    It was slow and had limitad capability The companies that had implementated that
    technology needed more speed
    APPROPRIATE TECHNOLOGY FOR SOLUTION 

    Characteristics How it works?


    Allow for conect differents modems without need Each node participates in routing
    of ethernet companies  by forwarding data for other nodes
    WHY IS BETTER?

    LOW COSTS ACCESIBLE AND USEFUL FOR USEFUL FOR POOR


    COMUNITIES COMUNITIES (REDUCE DIGITAL
    GAP)
    CONCLUSION

    Low cost Is better than the other systems in


    terms of speed
    The only cost is from modem's costs.
    CONCLUSION

    The idea helps to Better quality of management of


    connect divaces between the members information
