Head over to: http://wiki.calgarymesh.ca which explains that the guests are issued IP's by the basestations (which each run a small pool of IPs and a DHCP server). The code that Shawn has donated (thanks Shawn!) is an aid to help configure the static IP's of the member/basestation nodes. Simon. PS.
