information from 44net wiki 44net is a community of licensed amateur radio operators building and connecting real networks using shared public address space 44net in brief 44net ip addresses are globally routable enabling direct accessibility from the public internet 44net makes publicly reachable networking available for experimentation and learning amateur radio operators and groups use it to run systems that are directly accessible from the internet using stable public ip addresses the resource that makes this possible is a block of over 12 million ip addresses tracing its origins to early packet radio today amateur radio digital communications ardc maintains the address space in service to the community see about 44net for background and history what people build people use 44net in many ways some run a single system others collaborate on shared projects or build independent networks there is no single right way to participate projects vary in scale and technical depth from individual servers and stations to regional networks and volunteer run independent systems individual projects remote station operation self hosted services cloud services with byoip bring your own ip means announcing and routing address space you control through infrastructure you choose examples ni2o s bit of cyberspace yo2loj s map of 44net see more projects shared infrastructure club networks linked repeaters and services for the wider community examples the internet radio linking project hamgate northeast us networks see more projects autonomous networks multi site links resilient backbones and globally routed independent systems examples hamnet broadband rf network aredn emergency data network see more projects see what people build on 44net for more examples how people participate people arrive at 44net by joining an existing project contributing to a shared effort or creating something new of their own anyone interested can join one of the mailing lists to follow what people are actively doing with 44net common paths into 44net join a network many participants begin by joining an existing project regional rf networks overlay networks and other volunteer run systems offer ways to learn and practice examples local packet and microwave networks regional mesh projects and shared access systems operated by volunteer groups contribute to a shared project others participate by contributing to an active project technicians designers tower climbers and system administrators time and skills are always in demand examples irlp nodes shared monitoring or dns services research collaborations repeater linking systems and community experimentation platforms create something new some participants begin by building systems or tools of their own many parts of 44net running today started as something one person built that others found useful examples new club networks independent routing experiments novel services or radio linked systems exploring new technical ideas how people connect when an operator is ready to run their own system they choose a provisioning approach that fits their project request address space and get building these paths coexist but are not automatically integrated see how connect ipip mesh and bgp fit together common ways projects connect 44net connect a wireguard based approach that uses secure tunnels over existing internet links to bring 44net to common modern devices developed and maintained by volunteers with support from ardc learn more about 44net connect ipip mesh a community operated overlay network built with ip in ip tunnels allowing independently run systems to interconnect across the internet it s a living descendant of the original amprnet packet networks get started with ipip mesh bgp announced subnet projects integrate directly with the internet s global routing system by announcing 44net subnets via bgp groups with asns upstream peers or datacenter facilities join the core of the internet this way get started with bgp announced subnets a culture of experimentation 44net is meant to be explored many operators begin with a small experiment and discover new ideas along the way projects may grow change direction or conclude entirely returning address space when a project ends keeps the resource available for others to try something new shared stewardship ardc maintains the address space and supporting infrastructure while participants steward the network by building systems maintaining projects and supporting one another as with amateur radio wide freedom to experiment comes with shared responsibility to care for the resource and keep it useful for future builders ardc maintains the address space and the core infrastructure that keeps 44net available over time participants help care for the network by building things keeping them running and supporting one another s work in keeping with amateur radio tradition operators have wide freedom to experiment provided they help protect the resource and use it thoughtfully so others can build and explore as well to learn more about how decisions are made or how to take part see about 44net governance policies and contributing before starting 44net is maintained as a community service for non commercial projects and generally requires an amateur radio operating license community expectations follow amateur radio traditions to learn more about eligibility see learn how eligibility works further reading about 44net understand history and stewardship what people build on 44net project examples ways to provision 44net get 44net on your device or network joining the discussion you do not need a project or subnet to start many people begin just by listening community and mailing lists subscribe to community discussions introduce yourself or follow ongoing projects see what others are building and share ideas of your own note the 44net wiki is being updated and expanded you may notice new sections and stub pages while this work is in progress if you have suggestions or comments please share them on the mailing list or help make contributions yourself older docs and notes earlier pages
