Suppose that the voltage V is applied between the points A and B, then V=IR=I0R0
Where Ri s the resistance of the whole grid. I is the current through the grid and I0  is the current through the segment AB. Now from symmetry I/4 is the part of the current flowing through all the four wire segment, meeting at the point A and similarity the amount of current flowering through the wires meeting at B is also I/4. Thus a current I/2 flows through the conductor AB i.e.’ I0=I2
Hence R=R02
