Meeting notes: Dimi x86 based TollGate that runs in a VM and works over wireguard Notes: The x86 image is useful for machines like start9. Wireguard is required for the enterprise ISP features that will transform Elzonte in no time. Could add reticulum to this. It deals with double NATing etc. ...

What are the challenges to enabling mobile as WiFi mesh devices?
TollGate profile picture
Mostly permissions. Apps require user permission to connect to a new network for the first time. Traffic from a mobile access point could be difficult to tunnel through a VPN. Background Mode can be unreliable because the operating system prioritizes the battery over apps.

Ideally such features would be developed at the OS level. However, we also didn't have the bandwidth to go far down the mobile rabbit hole, because there are plenty of low hanging fruits in OpenWRT.

We are looking for mobile developers who know what's the right way forward. @GrapheneOS @franzap
