Place a Repeater

Do you have a roof, balcony or upper floor with a view? Perfect! A repeater greatly extends the network's range.

  • โœ“ Range up to 10+ km in open areas
  • โœ“ 24/7 available for all users
  • โœ“ One-time investment from โ‚ฌ50
  • โœ“ Very low energy consumption

Frequently Asked Questions About the Network

How far does the signal reach?
In open field a LoRa signal can reach 10+ kilometers. In built-up areas this is approximately 1 km. With repeaters, messages can travel much further through "hops" between devices.
Can I use the network if there are no repeaters near me?
Yes! You can also communicate directly with other users within range (approximately 1 km in built-up areas, up to 10+ km in open field), without repeaters. But repeaters significantly increase the range and reliability. Consider placing a repeater yourself!
How do I know if there is coverage in my area?
Soon you will be able to see this on the interactive map. For now you can ask in the community if there are others active in your region. You can also test yourself by purchasing a device and sending test messages.
What does it cost to place a repeater?
A repeater costs approximately from โ‚ฌ50 one-time. Energy consumption is negligible (โ‚ฌ1-2 per year). No subscriptions, no monthly costs. You help the network and are always connected yourself.
Can the network fail?
Individual repeaters can fail (for example due to power outages or defects), but the mesh network automatically heals itself by finding other routes. The more repeaters, the more robust the network.
