Mesh Router Planning
Where one more router would help the most nodes that are poorly served today. Mesh nodes: Meshtastic nodes that publish their own map reports and MeshCore nodes that advertise themselves. The numbers are in Settings > Mesh Nodes.

Poorly served nodes
A node is poorly served when no more than one gateway heard it lately, or the best signal anyone had of it was weaker than -5.0 dB. Each suggestion is the place where a router would be within 15 km of the most of those nodes, then the best place for the nodes that are left, and so on. This is a guess from what was heard. It does not know about hills, trees or antenna heights: check a spot with a coverage tool and a visit before putting a router there.
