The clear bottle packaging of the routers in the photographs is<br>
interesting. Looking at the climate data for Leh;<br>

<br>
my guess is that the bottle will make a good thermal environment;<br>
spending the most time within the temperature range of the router.<br>
Router radios become less sensitive as temperature increases.<br>
<br>
Charting inside and outside temperature would be interesting.<br>
<br>
At high altitudes my caution would suggest a watchdog circuit for the<br>
DC to DC converter, to switch it off and then on again if the router<br>
isn't responding. Especially where batteries are used. Where no<br>
battery is used, a node will restart next morning, and that may be<br>
enough to handle the more frequent single event upsets.<br>
