Not sure on throughput. It's probably not super high. It's meant to be low power, low bandwidth. It's mainly text based messages. Routers are just nodes that listen better and have more priority, they need to be in optimal spots.
Most connection are within a few KM, but with the right setup it can go further.
Most nodes can handle about 100 other nodes in their active list, the list just rolls off after that. Messages should still transfer through although the network, but I havent had to deal with a network that big.
Overall it's not a replacement for internet and not really geared toward huge numbers of people, but it's useful in many ways. I'm actually using it at work for comms as well. It's lots of fun and pretty cheap to get into.
