Tim While I agree with what you are saying in principal, the definition of a "True Mesh" is every changing :) OLSR is based on the ad-hoc design, and with the level of processor we are using, a single ESSID and channel with somewhere in the 75-100 interface range should work very well for most of the customers that will be using it.
To do what you are asking for would take more processing power and add to the cost which is not the intention of the RWR design. This is just another tool for the WISP to use in a design that makes sense with OLSR :) Sincerely, Tony Morella Demarc Technology Group, A Wireless Solution Provider Office: 207-667-7583 Fax: 207-433-1008 http://www.demarctech.com This communication constitutes an electronic communication within the meaning of the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, 18 USC 2510, and its disclosure is strictly limited to the recipient intended by the sender of this message.

OLSR allows you to have multiple paths (tcp/IP) to your Internet gateway, a true mesh system not only allows multiple paths, but will also seek out different wireless connections to different SSID's to find the shortest path to the Internet gateway. In the case of OLSR (of the systems I've seen) it does not seek a list of SSID wireless connection.
