Introduction In today’s digital-first world, connectivity is the backbone of development. Yet, millions of underserved communities globally—including schools, health centers, and public offices—struggle with unreliable and inefficient internet access. These connectivity gaps hinder education, healthcare delivery, and governance, perpetuating inequities. Our project, the Blockchain-Backed AI Connectivity Manager, addresses this critical challenge by offering a scalable, transparent, and sustainable solution that ensures equitable and reliable internet access. Problem Statement Access to reliable internet remains a significant barrier for underserved communities. Key challenges include: Inefficient Bandwidth Allocation: Existing solutions fail to optimize internet resources, leading to congestion during peak hours. Lack of Transparency: Users often cannot track or manage their resource usage, eroding trust in service providers. Downtime and Maintenance Delays: Reactive maintenance approaches result in frequent service interruptions. High Costs: Current solutions are either unaffordable or fail to offer long-term scalability. Proposed Solution Our Blockchain-Backed AI Connectivity Manager is an innovative platform that combines blockchain transparency with AI-driven network management to solve these challenges. Key Features AI-Powered Bandwidth Allocation: Ensures equitable distribution of resources, prioritizing critical applications like e-learning and telemedicine. Real-Time Monitoring: Provides an intuitive dashboard for instant issue detection and resolution. Predictive Maintenance: Utilizes AI to forecast potential network failures, reducing downtime. Blockchain Transparency: Logs usage data securely, fostering trust and accountability among stakeholders. Automated Failover Systems: Maintains uninterrupted connectivity by seamlessly switching to backup networks when needed.
