'''Kiwix-plug''' is a solution which provides a public Wifi hotspot allowing every person with a Wifi network card and a device to surf and download Wikipedia (or any content available as a [http://www.openzim.org ZIM file]). Kiwix-plug is based on a small server call [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plug_computer plug computer] which is a computer as big as a fist and directly pluggable on the power network. You can extend its wifi coverage by plugging additional wifi routers.
