I studied this last week with monitor mode, tcpdump and wireshark. When the wireless adapter has been commanded to associate with an access point on a specific channel, mesh beacons and mesh probe responses are seen from that adapter on that channel. This can be verified by scanning. So in my opinion, you are always going to have your target AP and the active mesh on the same channel. The variability of Tim's results are probably determined by the environment the test is being done in. Take the test back to Haiti where it failed. -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
