The company Ukamak is launching a crowdfunding campaign that’s intended to let you be your own cell carrier. And you may actually want to use it.

Experts say that making your own cell network is easier than you think and could give you more privacy than commercial providers. And, it’s something you may want to actually consider using.

Bring your own service If Ukamak’s crowdfunding campaign is successful, the company plans to ship its devices next summer. However, the system won’t come cheap. You’ll need a $799 Tower Node that’s mounted outside on a roof or building so it can broadcast your home internet connection. Don’t forget the $549 amplifier for the Tower Node, a $599 Home Node for indoor use, and a $499 module that acts as a base for a do-it-yourself cell radio.

Private 5G networks also offer greater range than Wi-Fi, Matt Horany, head of enterprise mobility management services at Stratix, a mobile solutions provider, said in an interview. He said private networks offer the benefits of 5G, like speed, lower latency, and the ability to connect more devices. “PCN vendors are talking about sharing scenarios where devices will attach to other hosts’ PCN nodes or to commercial cellular networks via roaming agreements, but until these are deployed, PCN users will need to have a second SIM or eSIM for continuous connectivity,” Witkowski said. “PCNs require the host to provide broadband and electrical power and a suitable installation location.”

“If an organization has the resources, they can build their own using either licensed or unlicensed spectrum,” he added. “There are many contractors in the business of setting up private networks. Major carriers like AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon also offer private network services.”

Use common sense! commonsenseworks Kanye West should buy myspace 😄😂😄😂
