--- title: 'Web4 Router - Network' sidebar_position: 4 --- ## Revolutionizing Communication with Web4 Routers A team is working to create a ThreeFold router powered by our **Mycelium technology**, enabling seamless, secure communication between every person and machine on the planet. This router is the backbone of a truly decentralized network, offering unmatched convenience, safety, and privacy. Imagine a world where you can connect and communicate effortlessly without needing an account—anywhere, anytime, simply by being within reach of one of our routers. ## Seamless Convenient Connectivity Our Mycelium Web4 router eliminates the barriers of traditional networks: - You don’t need to sign up with a telecom provider - Simply connect to the network and start communicating or transacting instantly. - Whether you’re in a city, village, or off-grid location, every router you encounter extends the network. - This ensures global coverage and accessibility. ## Shortest Path for Maximum Efficiency Powered by the decentralized architecture of Mycelium technology, our routers dynamically find the **shortest and most efficient path**. This means: - **Optimized Speed**: Minimal latency and faster connections for all your interactions. - **Energy Efficiency**: Reducing the resource footprint by avoiding unnecessary hops. - **Reliability**: A self-healing network that reroutes intelligently in case of disruptions. ## Privacy and Security by Design Security and privacy are not mere features: they are the foundations of our network. The Mycelium Router upholds the highest standards of digital safety: - **End-to-End Encryption**: All communications are encrypted, ensuring only the intended recipients can access your data. - **Decentralized Architecture**: No centralized servers mean no single point of failure or surveillance. - **Anonymity**: Your identity is protected by default—our routers respect your privacy and ensure secure interactions. ## Convenience Meets Innovation The Mycelium Web4 router complements the core values of our network: - **Plug-and-Play**: Easy to set up and start using without complex configurations. - **Global Interoperability**: Works seamlessly with all devices, from phones to IoT machines, creating a unified network. - **Scalability**: As more routers join the network, it becomes faster, stronger, and more resilient, creating a true people-powered internet. ## Release Schedule Presales of the routers will start beginning of Q1 2025. Once we achieve over 10,000 units in presale, production and delivery will start.
