public Internet to work at all, both outbound AND inbound.

Maybe a concrete example of our current and future S5net in Slovenia together with our

As you can see from schema of current and planned links:
https://groups.io/g/nbp/topic/s5net_stanje_in_plan/79358609
we are building nationwide radio network, linking our hills with DMR repeaters into a
fully redundant network, as much as possible independent from public internet. Main
goals:
- reliable DMR, EchoLink, APRS network,
- emergency communications for our communities,
- for radioclubs and individual radioamateurs,
- open for experimentation and innovation into the future.
