Isifinyezo sokuqonda

Amanethiwekhi e-Mesh aguqula indlela imiphakathi efinyelela ngayo ku-inthanethi ngokunikeza ukuxhumana okungenantambo, ikakhulukazi ezindaweni ezinganakekelwa abahlinzeki bendabuko. Lolu guquko lunika imiphakathi amandla ngokwandisa ukufinyelela kwedijithali nokufunda, kuthuthukise ukuxhumana ezindaweni ezikude, ezihola kancane kanye nokugqugquzela ubudlelwano phakathi kwemikhakha eyahlukene ukuze kusetshenziswe inethiwekhi. Lo mkhuba ukhombisa ukuya ezisombululweni eziningi ze-inthanethi eziqhutshwa umphakathi, ezingaba nomthelela kumamodeli amabhizinisi kanye nezinqubomgomo zikahulumeni ezihlobene nezokuxhumana.

Ingqikithi yemeshi ye-Wi-Fi yendawo

Inethiwekhi ye-mesh wuhlelo lapho i-node ngayinye yomsakazo engenazintambo isebenza khona njengomamukeli nesidlulisi, okuvumela idatha ukuba igxume isuka kwenye i-nodi iye kwenye. Lo mklamo udala izindlela eziningi ukuze idatha ihambe, iqinisekisa inethiwekhi ethembeke kakhudlwana futhi evumelana nezimo. Ngokungafani namanethiwekhi omdabu ancike ezindaweni ezimbalwa zokufinyelela ezinezintambo, amanethiwekhi anezikhala asebenzisa ukuxhumana okungenantambo, ehlisa ukuthembela kubahlinzeki besevisi ye-inthanethi nokudala inethiwekhi ehlukaniswe kakhulu. Lolu hlelo lusebenza kahle kakhulu ezindaweni lapho ukufaka izintambo kungenakwenzeka noma kubiza kakhulu.

Ngesikhathi sodlame lwe-COVID-19, imiphakathi eminingi yabhekana nezinselele ngokuxhumeka kwayo ku-inthanethi. Ezindaweni zasemadolobheni ezifana ne-Brooklyn, New York, kanye ne-Marin, California, abahlinzeki besevisi ye-inthanethi abanezintambo abakhona bazabalaza ukusekela isidingo esikhulayo njengoba abantu abaningi besebenza besekhaya. Lesi simo sigqamise imikhawulo yezinsizakalo ze-inthanethi ezijwayelekile, ezimaphakathi futhi sagcizelela isidingo sezixazululo eziguquguqukayo.

Indlela entsha yokusabela kule nselele yaboniswa i-NYC Mesh, inethiwekhi yokubambisana eyakhiwe amavolontiya, amaningi awo anezizinda kwezobuchwepheshe. I-NYC Mesh ithuthukise inethiwekhi ye-Wi-Fi mesh esekelwe emphakathini, ihlinzeka ngenye indlela kunezinsizakalo ezijwayelekile ze-inthanethi. Lo msebenzi wawubandakanya ukuqeqesha izakhamuzi zendawo ukuba zifake izinti ophahleni lwazo, okuzenza zikwazi ukuxhuma kunethiwekhi enezikhala. Isevisi ehlinzekwa yi-NYC Mesh imahhala, idinga abasebenzisi kuphela ukuthi bamboze izindleko zokuqala zemishini. 

Umthelela ophazamisayo

Ukunwetshwa komfelandawonye we-NYC Mesh kunemithelela ebalulekile ekuthuthukisweni komphakathi kanye nemfundo yezobuchwepheshe. Ngokugxila emiphakathini enganakiwe, izifunda zesikole, izindawo ezihlala abantu abahola kancane, nezindawo zokukhosela ezingenamakhaya, umfelandawonye ubhekana nokuhlukana kwedijithali okuvamise ukushiya lezi zindawo zingenakho ukufinyelela kwe-inthanethi okuthembekile. Ukubamba iqhaza kwamavolontiya ahlala ohlelweni kugqamisa inkambiso ekhulayo ebheke kuzixazululo zobuchwepheshe eziqhutshwa umphakathi. 

E-Marin, ukusebenzisana phakathi kwezinhlangano ezingenzi nzuzo zendawo, izikhulu zikahulumeni, nabafundisi ukuze basungule inethiwekhi ye-Wi-Fi yenethiwekhi kukhombisa ukuzibophezela okufanayo ekuhlomiseni umphakathi ngobuchwepheshe. Ukusetshenziswa kobuchwepheshe be-Cisco kulolu hlelo kukhombisa ukuthi ubudlelwano phakathi kwezinkampani ezizimele zobuchwepheshe nezinhlangano zomphakathi bungaveza kanjani imiphumela emihle yezenhlalo. Ngokugxila emizamweni yokuqongelela imali ekuhlinzekeni ukufinyelela kwe-Wi-Fi emiphakathini enabantu abaningi, ehola kancane, iphrojekthi ibhekana ngqo nezinkinga zokufinyeleleka kwe-inthanethi nokulingana. Isinqumo sokufaka ama-antenna ezindaweni ezibalulekile njengezikhungo zomphakathi nezakhiwo zikahulumeni, okuhambisana nokuhlinzekwa kwemiyalelo yezilimi eziningi, kuqinisekisa ukuthi inethiwekhi iyafinyeleleka futhi isebenziseka kalula, ikakhulukazi kubahlali abangakhulumi isiNgisi.

Uma sibheka phambili, izinhlelo e-Marin zokwandisa inethiwekhi futhi kuthuthukiswe isivinini se-inthanethi ziphakamisa imodeli engahlelekiyo engase ilingise amanye amadolobha. Lokhu kwanda akukhona nje ukuthuthukisa ubuchwepheshe kodwa futhi mayelana nokubandakanywa komphakathi kanye nokufinyelela kwezemfundo. Njengoba kufakwa ama-antenna amaningi, ukufinyelela kwenethiwekhi nokusebenza kahle kuzokhula, kunikeze izakhamuzi eziningi ukufinyelela kwe-inthanethi okuthembekile. Lo mkhuba ukhombisa ukushintshela ezindleleni zasendaweni nezigxile emphakathini ekuhlinzekeni nge-inthanethi, okungase kukhuthaze imizamo efanayo kwezinye izifunda.

Imithelela ye-Wi-Fi mesh yendawo

Imithelela ebanzi ye-Wi-Fi mesh yendawo ingase ihlanganise:

• Imiphakathi eqhelile futhi ehola kancane yakha futhi igcine inethiwekhi yayo ye-Wi-Fi yomphakathi, okuholela ekusetshenzisweni kwe-inthanethi komphakathi okwengeziwe.
• Ukwandisa ubambiswano phakathi kohulumeni basekhaya, izinhlangano ezingenzi nzuzo, nezinkampani zobuchwepheshe ukuze zifake amanethiwekhi angomakhelwane be-Wi-Fi.
• Amanethiwekhi we-Wi-Fi mesh kanye nabasebenzisi bacindezelwe ukuthi benze ngcono izindlela zabo zokuphepha ku-inthanethi ukuze bavikeleke ekuhlaselweni komphakathi okukhulu.
• Abahlinzeki abadinga ukubhekana noma ukulungisa izinselele zengqalasizinda ezifana nokuminyana kwenethiwekhi, imikhawulo yomkhawulokudonsa, nokubambezeleka okweqile kunethiwekhi ye-Wi-Fi mesh.
• Amabhizinisi alungisa amamodeli awo ukuze anikeze amasevisi nemikhiqizo ehambisana namanethiwekhi e-Wi-Fi ahlukaniselwe izwe, okuholela ekunikezelweni kwekhasimende okuhlukahlukene nokwasendaweni.
• Ohulumeni babuyekeza futhi okungenzeka bachibiyele izinqubomgomo zokuxhumana ukuze zifake futhi zilawule amanethiwekhi anezikhala azinze emphakathini, ukuqinisekisa ukufinyelela kwe-inthanethi okulinganayo.

Imibuzo okufanele icatshangelwe

• Izinkampani ze-Big Tech zingasabela kanjani ekwandiseni i-Wi-Fi mesh kanye nokuncipha kwamanethiwekhi e-inthanethi ngamanye?
• Ucabanga ukuthi iyiphi enye indlela ukunyakaza kwe-Wi-Fi mesh kungathuthukisa ukufinyelela ku-inthanethi?
