Hi Thomas,
Today I have configured the 2 nodes in this way:
1- I have created 2 ifaces: one for ap mode and the other one for mesh
mode, look:
/etc/config/network
[...]
config 'interface' 'ap'
option 'proto' 'static'
option 'ipaddr' '192.168.2.1'
option 'netmask' '255.255.255.0'
config 'interface' 'mesh'
option 'proto' 'static'
option 'ipaddr' '10.0.0.1'
option 'netmask' '255.255.255.0'
/etc/config/wireless
[...]
config 'wifi-iface' 'mesh0'
option 'device' 'radio0'
option 'network' 'mesh'
option 'mode' 'mesh'
option 'mesh_id' 'mymesh'
option 'ssid' 'mesh'
config 'wifi-iface'
option 'device' 'radio0'
option 'network' 'ap'
option 'mode' 'ap'
option 'ssid' 'meshap'
option 'encryption' 'none'
2- running ifconfig:

3- running iw dev:
phy#0
Interface mon.wlan0
ifindex 21
type monitor
Interface wlan0-1
ifindex 20
type mesh point
Interface wlan0
ifindex 19
type AP
4- running iw dev wlan0-1 station dump: it seems that the node stablish L2
connection with the other node (da:5d:4c:d4:fd:7d)
Station da:5d:4c:d4:fd:7d (on wlan0-1)
inactive time: 30 ms
rx bytes: 12271
rx packets: 332
tx bytes: 205
tx packets: 3
tx retries: 0
tx failed: 0

tx bitrate: 1.0 MBit/s
rx bitrate: 1.0 MBit/s
mesh llid: 52474
mesh plid: 63532
mesh plink: ESTAB
OBSERVATION: when I put 'ap' to the second wifi-iface and run station dump
command the nodes don't stablish connection
config 'wifi-iface' 'mesh0'
[...]
config 'wifi-iface' 'ap'
[...]
5- running iw dev wlan0-1 mpath dump: nothing appear
DEST ADDR NEXT HOP IFACE SN METRIC QLEN

6- running dmesg:
