Priatebox TP-LINK TL-MR3040 3G/4G Wireless N150 Portable Router

PirateBox!!
PirateBox is a DIY anonymous offline file-sharing and communications system built with free software and inexpensive off-the-shelf hardware.

What is a PirateBox?
PirateBox creates offline wireless networks designed for anonymous file sharing, chatting, message boarding, and media streaming. You can think of it as your very own portable offline Internet in a box!

How does it work?
When users join the PirateBox wireless network and open a web browser, they are automatically redirected to the PirateBox welcome page. Users can anonymously chat, post images or comments on the bulletin board, watch or listen to streaming media, or upload and download files inside their web browser to share with the community.

Where can I buy a PirateBox?
You can by one already built here, or you can build one yourself by Visiting the PirateBox OpenWrt DIY page for detailed instructions and more info.

For the less coders or you just don't have time to figure this out. I'll build one for you.

This one is on the TP-Link TL-MR3040 wireless router and follows what I found to be the best way of building one. Placing the web site on a external drive for more space and having a built in power source.

Is it safe?
PirateBox is designed to be private and secure. No logins are required and no user data is logged. Users remain anonymous – the system is purposely not connected to the Internet in order to subvert tracking and preserve user privacy. The main reason of having such a network is to share with your friends! Your fiends have to be within 50 feet of you in most uses. So how safe are your friends!

PirateBox Version 1.0
PirateBox 1.0 brings several new features including: Responsive web design for ease of use with phones and tablets; UPnP Media Server for local streaming of movies and songs; Image and Message Board for 4chan-like functionality; Chat room for anonymous communications; Browser-based file sharing system!
