Alberto, Welcome to the forum.

Roger prefers that we use our call signs as ids on the forum.

DMR is a remarkable extension to amateur radio.

I suggest you look into the Brandmeister voice over IP infrastructure. It is my preferred "backbone" for DMR, and probably easier to use than others.

Many of us do not have DMR repeaters available in our areas, so use individual HotSpots connected by Internet to the Brandmeister network.

You'll probably find that PiStar running on a MMDVM-Hat and Raspberry Pi ZeroW is the most reasonable way to get a hotspot up and running. Together, these are packaged as one unit in a metal case, and available from many sellers as "JumboSpot" hotspots. Note that the MMDVM-Hat boards (simplex and duplex) are open source hardware, and have been made by many fabricators, with some better quality than others.
