Improving Access to Educational Resources Through Locally Hosted Wireless Networks

This study explores the implementation of locally hosted wireless networks as a means of improving access to educational resources in underserved and low-connectivity environments. The research involves the deployment of a low-cost, offline-accessible server containing a curated set of educational materials, hosted within a wireless local area network (WLAN). Data were collected from students and educators before and after deployment to assess the impact on content accessibility, usage frequency, and user satisfaction. The results, presented in tabular and graphical forms, indicate a significant increase in the utilization of digital resources. The findings highlight the potential for scalable, community-based educational solutions that do not rely on constant internet access
