Commotion Wireless
Commotion Wireless is an open-source wireless mesh network for electronic communication. The project was developed by the Open Technology Institute, and development included a $2 million grant from the United States Department of State in 2011 for use as a mobile ad hoc network (MANET), concomitant with the Arab Spring. It was preliminarily deployed in Detroit in late 2012, and launched generally in March 2013. The project has been called an "Internet in a Suitcase".

Commotion 1.0, the first non-beta release, was launched on December 30, 2013.

Commotion relies on several open source projects: OLSR, OpenWrt, OpenBTS, and Serval project.
