Post-Collapse Computer Network

The Survival Blog recently published a couple series of articles on setting up computer networks for post SHTF situations, including one offering up a simpler option. If this looks familiar, it is because it was included in one of my recent "Guns & Prepping News" post taken down by Google:

  • "A Simplified Disaster Network" (Part 1) (Part 2)--Survival Blog. The author explains:

Having an operational computer network running in a post-SHTF world may seem frivolous to some people. But if you have any plans to use computers, tablets, or cell phones as part of your post-disaster operations, it can provide the capability for those devices to communicate, share data and synchronize their activities. It can also provide some support for important things like WiFi security cameras and WiFi sensor monitoring.

The author had previously authored a series of articles on how to set up a mobile WiFi/Ethernet network. But he had some people complain it was too complicated and whether there was a simpler alternative. These two articles offer that simpler alternative. The first article goes over hardware and configuration. The second article goes over synchronizing files and "packaging" of all of the equipment to make it portable, along with some odds and ends.
