Hi, i am about to contact the developer of the open80211s kernel patches to see what his status is, looks like the drivers are for zydas wifi sticks (not ralink) i just compiled his kernel tree with mesh support, but will have to wait till i get home on the weekend to dig out a usb stick with the chipset and then test it with my XO. also there is a ticket in the open80211s trac(or whatever he uzses) to add support to the b43 driver, so i'll see if mb___ can help him out with that one.
if this goes well, it will be a matter of 1-2 days to add a profile/feed to the openwrt tree to provide images that support this feature. i'll send an update when i have news John Quoting John Gunkel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > 2008/4/21 Holger Levsen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: >> Hi, >> >> >> On Tuesday 15 April 2008 19:11, Martin Langhoff wrote: >> > what do we know about the possibility of connecting to our active >> > antennaes with regular WiFi hardware, perhaps from OTS laptops using >> > linux? >> >> using ralink wireless chips its now possible to use 802.11s in >> software, see >> http://open80211s.org/ - work on other chipsets is in progress. > > hmmmm... > > the AR525W is basically an embedded x86 box with a ralink miniPCI > card.
