Low. That's exactly what it is good for. Plus, the mesh nature of the network is rather robust with enough nodes and elevation.

These devices were (and are) invaluable in disaster areas and when all the internet infrastructure is disrupted. An example of this is what happened last year in North Carolina and the surrounding States. Meshtastic nodes played a critical role in helping coordinate rescuers relief.

Yeah, it's not an Intetnet replacement. With the radio setting I'd get 1.07kbps. The max is 21.88kbps. But that's not the point of this network.

I also am working on an 802.11 mesh network, which IS high bandwidth. The problem is that it's short range (typical wifi range). This is the trade off with radio.

Long range, difficult to disrupt, but low data rate or,

Short range, interference easily causrs packet loss, but high data rates

Here's the page with the speeds that I quoted. https://meshtastic.org/docs/overview/radio-settings/

And here's the project that I work on intermittently which in intended to do 802.11 mesh networking with whatever gear you havr lying around.
