FAQ
- Can this product be used as a client that my phone or computer can connect to?
Yes! Just keep in mind that the box needs to be within range of where you are wanting to use Meshtastic. You must be within range of Bluetooth in order to use the mobile app to send and receive messages.. You can setup the box inside and use it as a base station as well but keep in mind it is solar and you should have the antenna outside and as high as possible ensure maximum range signal. How you set it up is up to you. - How far does bluetooth reach?
This model as a bluetooth is about 20-30 ft. - How far does the signal go?
This can vary but in an urban setting, you can get about 1.5 miles easily. In an open setting with clear line of sight, you can get up to 18.5 miles! Range varies on the environment. Try to get the antenna as high as possible.
