Some were around for years, but I haven't seen one in a while. I suppose they were removed as part of normal street-light maintenance. There may be some nodes, somewhere, still trying to connect.
This give me hope.
I have been struggling with starting a small scale city wide mesh wifi... that shit is hard.
I don’t need the bandwidth, just some connectivity.
It’s pair really well with the bare bone internet that I would like to see back. ( HN being a fancy exemple of that )
