At present Internet communication has become a very important need for an organization or individual in the world. The emergence of internet communication has a positive impact on the economic progress of remote areas where one can carry out global economic action without the need to go far to the big city and do not need to spend money (think globally, act locally). On the other hand, Indonesia is a broad country that has thousands of islands with a variety of geographical conditions: highlands, lowlands, mountains, coastals and others. With this geographical state, until now Indonesia still has a digital divide problem, where there are still many villages or regions in Indonesia not yet affordable by Internet organizers. In addition, installation costs and subscription fees for internet services are still an obstacle in building internet infrastructure in a rural area. Some people cannot access the internet because it is expensive. In the first year, we designed and implemented a Delay Tolerant Network (DTN) internet system. After that we conducted a trial at the location of the community service.
