## Mycelium Routers
The Mycelium Routers allow everyone to connect the users of our network with each other.
### Mycelium Router Indoor
We are partnering with WiFi device vendors to extend the Mycelium Network in a full peer-to-peer fashion.
WiFi 6 is now a reality and a native capacity from our first chosen node. The TFRouter Indoor can be purchased starting now.
It's an exciting node with a reasonable price point and enough CPU capacity to run the Mycelium Network stack within the node itself.
More than 1 node can be installed in a larger office, hotel, home, etc., and they will automatically mesh together.

### Mycelium Router Edge
The TFRouter Edge is a powerhouse, equipped with a strong CPU and lots of memory to run edge network functions. This router can be connected to multiple uplinks (satellite, cable, fiber, 5G), ...
Mycelium ensures that the shortest and fastest path is always used, and all communication is end-to-end encrypted between an TFRouter or even your mobile or computer if you have the Mycelium agent installed.

This Router is super fast and has lots of connectivity.

> This Router can be bought right now.
### TFRouter Outdoor + Long Range
We are in the process of selecting the appropriate network equipment to bridge between two locations and enable the creation of meshed wireless networks at the lowest cost.
Currently, we rely on fiber or existing internet connections to link between locations, but wouldn't it be cool if we could create our own long-range network connections?

> We are looking for volunteers who will be rewarded to do reasearch and experiment with chosen equipment to test performance in real life situations, let us know if interest to help.
