CraftNet Telecom

📡 CraftNet Telecom

The most complete telecommunications infrastructure mod for Minecraft 1.20.1.
Build real mobile networks, place towers, configure routers — all from a smartphone in your pocket.

⚠️ Early release — mostly stable with minor known bugs.Some features may not work or be bugged. Active development.

🗼 Cell Towers

Every tower is fully configurable — operator, speed cap, frequency band (700 MHz rural vs 3.5 GHz urban), active/offline toggle.

📶 WiFi & Mesh

• WE Router — WiFi 5, 35 block range
• Mitrastar HGU — WiFi 7, 64 block range, up to 5000 Mbps
• Nokia WiFi Beacon 1 — WiFi 6E Mesh, chain up to 10 nodes, 64 blocks per node

How to set up a mesh network:

1. Hold the Telecom Wrench, right-click the Nokia Beacon near your router → becomes Master node
2. Right-click each additional Beacon → joins as Satellite node
3. Keep nodes within 40 blocks for full speed (>40 blocks = −30% penalty)

🛰️ Starlink

Place the Starlink Dish with clear sky above — the mod checks every block upward to build height. Works globally regardless of tower range.

👥 Operators

7 pre-configured operators — fully editable in-game or via commands:

🇲🇩 Onedot · Orange · TM · MCV · Moldtelecom · StarNet · Unite

💳 SIM Cards & Plans
