We calculated QoE by using a reviewed version of the E-model. Since that parameter is strongly correlated with some stochastic network variables it presents stochastic behaviour too. So, we discuss important issues needed to estimate QoE based parameters in a trusty way. Results showed that the average QoE kept acceptable only under AODV routing as the number of VoIP traffic was increased in the network.

There has been considerable hype behind Wireless Mesh Networking as the ubiquitous solution for rural ICT in the developing world. In this paper, we present the real world rural mesh network implementation in the village of Macha, Zambia and draw both performance conclusions as well as overall experiential conclusions. The purpose of this paper is to introduce and analyze our low cost solution and extrapolate future trends for rural ICT implementations in Zambia.
