4. Low complexity –
Management and signal generation circuitry of the base station can be moved to
a centralized location and shared between several remote stations, thus
simplifying the architecture.
Lower cost –
Simpler structure of remote base station means lower cost of infrastructure,
lower power consumption by devices and simpler maintenance all contributed to
lowering the overall installation and maintenance cost.
Flexibility –
Portable hot spot or cell phone can operate complete Allstar System.

6. AllStar Nodes Repeater link Power
It is also important to have stable power. Pi's don't
like to be power cycled quickly and that can
sometimes happen on the power grid. A small
UPS or battery backup would work fine. Some
people run them on the car adapters 12V to 5V 3A
and then you could parallel a battery with diode
isolation and a charge circuit.
