Thanks David!
Answer 1 : I will not provide kits outside Europe (where I live), it
would be too difficult, sorry. But I can help someone who wants to
organize a "group order", and who wants to sell kits in the US.
Answer 2 : In order to achieve links with omnidirectional antennas, you
have to lower the datarate drastically. In order to do so, I would need
to change lots and lots of things in my protocol, which is not designed
for such low datarates. Therefore, I will not make such a development,
sorry.

Very cool Guillaume and thank you for posting! I'll have to dig into
site more and send you some more questions.
Question 1: are you planning on offering any hardware kits or
complete build of this hardware?
Question 2: do you think it's possible to lower the data rate to
the point that omni-directional antennas would work decently well?

Hello,
I am Guillaume, callsign F4HDK, a french amateur-radio operator, and
a hacker-maker.
I would like to share with you my last project : NPR (New Packet Radio).
All documentation is provided here :
https://hackaday.io/project/164092-npr-new-packet-radio
This solution can transport bi directional IP trafic over 70cm radio
links, in a 'point to multipoint' topology, at datarate up to 500kbps.
This can be used to increase the range of existing HSMM-Hamnet
networks, at lower datarates.
It's designed for "access", not backbone, and not designed for H24 use.
Its is 100% open-source.
Do not hesitate to ask me questions about it.
I hope it will interest some people here.
