What I am trying to accomplish (besides changing the hostname on my server) is a mesh network with a separate backhual. The primary interface will use 802.11g/n and the backhual will use 802.11a. I definately need wep/eap encription on the backhual (256bits if possible) and this needs to be omni directional meaning and node can connect to it (which is the nature of mesh). I will also be using OLSRD and possibly hostap.
Thanks again.
