I regret that I am too busy this week to respond further on this thread. For the record, I am helping implement the following test scenario at battlemesh:
http://battlemesh-test-docs.readthedocs.org/v8/3-the-mesh-of-death-adversity.html For those that would like a glimpse into some of the real problems wifi has, and some of the solutions emerging for it, I suggest some bedtime reading of the minstrel-blues stuff: https://opus4.kobv.de/opus4-tuberlin/frontdoor/index/index/docId/3939 Which has been improving spacial reuse in this dense wifi environment by a bit, there have also been other improvements in rate control, and of course, the next big improvement in wifi I plan to work on is a fq_codel-like implementation of per-station queueing, which should improve the utilization of the 802.11n(and ac) mac by a lot, and reduce induced latency, by lot. But before then, we test, and gather data.
