About the Book

Discover how to communicate without cell towers, Wi-Fi, or the internet with The Meshtastic Guide: Build Your Own Decentralized Network. This comprehensive beginner's manual by Evan Miraxton introduces readers to Meshtastic, the revolutionary open-source project that uses LoRa radios to create decentralized, long-range mesh networks. Whether you are a hiker, survivalist, outdoor adventurer, emergency prepper, community organizer, or tech enthusiast, this book shows you how to take control of your communication and build a reliable system that works when everything else fails. Meshtastic is more than just a gadget-it is a resilient communication tool designed for real-world situations. With step-by-step explanations, you will learn how to set up devices, send and receive messages, share GPS locations, and expand your coverage with relay nodes. The guide explores practical applications such as hiking and backcountry adventures, off-grid family communication, disaster and emergency preparedness, camping trips, remote work, urban exploration, and protest coordination. By combining clear technical detail with accessible language, this book ensures that even readers with no prior radio or networking experience can quickly understand and use Meshtastic. Inside, you will discover how mesh networks work, how LoRa enables long-range communication, and how to customize your setup with sensors, automation, and map-based tracking. You will also explore advanced topics such as MQTT integration, firmware customization, encryption for secure communication, and energy optimization for solar-powered or battery-based deployments. Each chapter combines theory with real-world examples, making this book the ultimate resource for both casual users and those who want to dive deeper into decentralized wireless networking. More than a technical guide, this book also highlights the ethical and legal dimensions of using Meshtastic worldwide. You will learn about spectrum regulations in different regions, responsible usage practices, encryption and data sharing, and how to avoid misuse while protecting the reputation of the network. The final chapters look ahead at the future of Meshtastic, exploring upcoming features, community contributions, global adoption, and the challenges of sustaining an open-source vision. Whether your goal is to stay connected while hiking off-grid, prepare for emergencies and disasters, build a local communication system for your family or community, or simply experiment with cutting-edge technology, The Meshtastic Guide is your essential companion. Packed with practical advice, detailed explanations, and inspiring use cases, this book shows you how to unlock the full potential of decentralized, off-grid communication. Join the growing global movement of people who are taking communication into their own hands-secure, private, resilient, and free.
