Really cool. Are you guys running custom hardware in the yellow boxes or is it something off the shelf?
If you look at the map a lot of the locations are very concentrated; this is likely because there are shit tonne of "Chai Wallah" places in India :). However, looking at the outliers, I am not expecting a device that is creating something similar to a net nor a wifi extender.
It would be way cheaper than having some other sort of a receiver.
