### Meshnet transports and libp2p
|
||||
|
||||
Waku protocols are built on top of [libp2p's modular network stack](https://libp2p.io/).
|
||||
This in essence allows the Waku network to be overlayed on existing network links.
|
||||
Several transports are already supported:
|
||||
depending on the specific underlying libp2p implementation,
|
||||
supported transports could include WebSockets, QUIC, TCP, WebRTC, etc.
|
||||
However, currently all transports are IP-based
|
||||
and require Waku nodes to have an active Internet connection to communicate outside of the local IP network.
|
||||
Not only does this presuppose access to reliable Internet connectivity,
|
||||
but such links are vulnerable to data profiling and censorship by ISPs or other entities.
|
||||
|
||||
This topic focuses on using Waku over non-IP routed networks,
|
||||
such as [Wireless Mesh Networks](https://www.pcworld.com/article/407165/mesh-network-explained.html)
|
||||
to improve accessibility and strengthen resistance against censorship.
|
||||
It also investigates how appropriate the libp2p network stack is for such environments
|
||||
and if Waku could benefit from using different networking stacks
|
||||
that may function better in very restrictive environments.
