Thanks for this, Thomas! The mesh finally worked, and I can now ping
the connected stations from one another.
Feels nice to see it in action.

Right now the stations I am using are running these versions of the kernels :

3.16.1-1-ARCH on station 1
3.13.0-35-generic on station 2

They seem to be connected and pinging each other. Thanks for the heads
up though, I'll be more careful and consider this if I run into
problems with other machines.

I'll try setting up the mesh gates now to enable WAN on the mesh.

PS - Is there a specific reason to it not working with changed MAC
addresses and preset mesh IDs ?

Thanks a lot for all the help!

Ashish Gupta
