Units within such a network can communicate with each other directly up to a distance of 1000 meters. If the distance is larger, the communication is relayed through one or more of up to seven intermediate units. Consequently, the network will gradually cover larger and larger areas as more units are connected to it.
A TerraNet network requires no central system, base stations or telecom provider. Everything is handled by the units themselves and the network is formed automatically.
The network can be connected to the rest of the world through ...
