Right, this is exactly it and a problem. If I need to deploy a bunch of routers throughout to make mesh networking function I might as well make those Wifi access points and get full TCP/IP for not only sensors but everything else. Usable low power mesh networking for sensors must not require full power routers. > I understand that I don't 'need' 1wire for many purposes, but I like the > flexibility, and am convinced that without too much pain I can get an > attiny85 to do the legwork and make it happen.
