eRise is rising to tackle the problem of Internet connectivity for less privileged communities through the Toki Server project. The aim of the project is to provide and empower one billion people for the next five years.
Toki Servers are WI-FI ready servers costing about $50 which can run on both AC power, or on batteries for up-to 72 hours and can handle 500 concurrent connections. These servers are placed in the private residences of Toki “Mayors”, who are responsible for maintaining and managing the servers.
