Hi,

we have the R-IDGE 6LoWPAN router USB sticks running on Linux. We succesfully made them talk with the samr21-xpro and the iot-lab_M3. But, currently no unicast communication was succesfull from board to stick only with multicast address as next-hop. However, we succesfully transmitted UDP packets forth and back using multicast next-hop.

As Raphael wrote, when plugged the stick is directly recognized by Linux as NIC and shows up on `ifconfig`. The 6LoWPAN specific configurations, such as setting the PAN/context or the channel, are made with a provided configuration tool (cfgtool [1]) which can be built from source. There is also a RPL Edge router daemon available [2], which we want to test with the boards.

Best regards,
Martin

Hi,

we have a couple of these USB things [1]. Martin has made a few tests with them. If I am not mistaken the sticks show up on Linux as a network interface without any problems.

Dear reasoning IoTlers,

I know, we had this question already several times before , but I'm not sure about the current state and if some of you have made new experiences in this domain: is there any off-the-shelf hardware available that provides an IEEE 802.15.4 interface for Linux systems - preferable something like a USB stick? If yes, does this hardware work with a standard Linux vanilla kernel and which version is required? Or does it need any custom/developer version of a driver? How well are upper layers like 6lowpan supported by Linux in the meantime? And
has anyone ever tried to connect such a device to a RIOT driven device?

Thanks,
Oleg
