In 2078, the Internet Society, Nepal Internet Foundation, and the local Sherpa community deployed the Everest Community Network in Khunde and Khamjung villages. Through wireless technology, the network provided internet access to the Khumjung school and the Khunde community club.

With the expansion of fiber, the residents of Khunde and Khamjung and climbers coming to these villages will experience high-speed internet access, said Bikram Shrestha, president of Nepal Internet Foundation.

Sherpa Homestays projects are also being introduced through this fiber-powered Everest Community Network.

An experienced tech writer covering news mostly on telecommunication, internet, latest tech & trends, and Gadgets. Being a technophile, I am particularly fascinated by the evolution of mobile networks in Nepal from legacy networks (2G, 3G) to 4G (with VoLTE, VoWiFi, eSIM) and the prospects of the upcoming 5G, and equally enthralled by the development of internet from the dial-up connection to the 2 Gbps XGS-PON fiber broadband technology and their transformative impact in the country.
