# WiFi Mesh in Australia

Private Cyberspace uses the [wireless regulatory database](https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/regulatory/wireless-regdb) in the Linux kernel to decide what frequencies to use and how to use those frequencies legally in each country.

- [Making sure you're not a bot!](https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sforshee/wireless-regdb.git/tree/db.txt?id=HEAD)

In Australia those data are extracted from:

- [Radiocommunications (Low Interference Potential Devices) Class Licence 2015 - Federal Register of Legislation](https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/F2023C00524)

If you discovered any errors in the database, please send them to the [Linux Wireless Mailing List](https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/mailinglists).

# Default Deployment

If possible, use 5.8 GHz band to connect from your device to your Station.  
2.4GHz band should be reserved for Station to Station communication.

## User Channels

5.8 GHz preferred.

| Channel | Frequency | Width |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 149 | 5745 MHz | 20 MHz |
| 153 | 5765 MHz | 20 MHz |
| 157 | 5785 MHz | 20 MHz |
| 161 | 5805 MHz | 20 MHz |
| 165 | 5825 MHz | 20 MHz |

## Cell Mesh Channels

2.4GHz preferred.

| Channel | Frequency | Width |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 1 | 2402–2422 MHz | 20 MHz |
| 7 | 2432–2452 MHz | 20 MHz |
| 13 | 2462–2482 MHz | 20 MHz |
