Diseño de conectividad y red comunitaria de bajo costo para el sector Malecón de la Libertad, cantón La Libertad, Provincia de Santa Elena.

Abstract

Abstract: This project proposes the design of a low-cost community network for the Malecón sector in La Libertad, Santa Elena, to improve Internet access in an area where traditional connectivity is poor. The design focuses on using affordable hardware and a local management model that lets the community handle the technical side of the system. An economic study is included to show that the project is sustainable and that the initial investment can be recovered in a short time. The findings confirm that this network effectively solves the lack of internet in the area, setting a technical and financial example that can be followed by other coastal places facing similar technology challenges.
