Can we create our own internet ?

Question

Can we create a connection to the internet ourselves without having to use a cellular 3g/4g subscription / wifi subscription?

Answer 1

Yes. In fact most businesses do this and call it an intranet. Some hobbiests do it over radio waves with HAM radio or WiFi.

All you need is a way for the computers to connect to each other. You just setup a little infrastructure and you have your own internet. Now the downside is that it can’t access the rest of the internet so the only websites/etc available are those you’re hosting on your private internet.
