Revision as of 15:27, 5 October 2025
Overview
MeshCore coverage in Ottawa is provided by a backbone of solar-powered repeaters. Coverage can vary depending on height, line-of-sight paths, and local terrain, but the following areas generally have access:
- Ashton
- Richmond
- Barrhaven
- Kanata
- Nepean
- Downtown
- Old Ottawa South
- Orleans
For a live view of deployed nodes, check the MeshCore Map. Use the filter at the top and select Repeaters only to see active backbone nodes in Ottawa.
