Mounting platform for network devices in a reconfigurable network

A system comprising:

• a platform including a first mounting component and a second mounting component, the platform being secured to an external surface of a structure via the second mounting component;
• a first network device coupled to the first mounting component, the first network device being part of a first network;
• a second network device coupled to a surface of the platform and communicably coupled to the first network device;
• and
• an energy source component configured to provide power to the first network device, wherein the second network device is configured to receive data from the first network device and provide the data to one or more client devices located within the structure.

A system, comprising:

• a platform including a first mounting component and a second mounting component, the platform being secured to an external surface of a structure via the second mounting component;
• a mesh network device coupled to the first mounting component, the mesh network device being part of a mesh network of mesh network devices, wherein the mesh network device comprises a plurality of radios operatively coupled to a beam-steering antenna, wherein at least one of the plurality of radios is configured to communicate with a neighbor mesh network device in the mesh network;
• a second network device coupled to the second mounting component and communicably coupled to the mesh network device, the second network device being configured to provide access to a wireless network;
• and
• an energy source component configured to provide power to the first mesh network device.
