Hi All,
The idea is that it uses the UHF packet radio to mesh over greater
distances than is possible with Wi-Fi, the trade-off being lower
bandwidth.
In general, we find that the UHF packet radio has a range of about 10x
that of Wi-Fi when deployed indoors with omni-directional antennae.
This means it has a range of about a block in a suburban or urban
setting compared with Wi-Fi's range of about one house or apartment.
Awsome progress Paul , i am following your progress for some time, what
you think about this " bug/ feature"
However, some mesh proponents say Google is unnecessarily hampering
their efforts because it does not support the device-to-device mode of
Wi-Fi chips in its Android software (a complaint registered with
Google as "Android bug #82
<https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=82>"). That means
before a device can become an active part of a mesh network, a user
must bypass Android's security controls, or "root" the device, by
installing special software. Unrooted devices can use connectivity
provided by a mesh network, but they can't help expand its coverage.

Is it possible to run it in a virualized enviroment ? i see debian and
openwrt directorys in there.

and MeshMS is very interesting too ;)
Good luck
