Dennis OLSRd is open source and used on many devices. While I would not call it plug and play once you have a basic setup adding nodes is very easy. Also as there is a windows version of the code one can easily add any laptop or desktop computer to the mesh. Again this is just one more tool for a WISP or enterprise to use.
We have customers in the shipping and mining industry where they mount these on trucks where LOS back to a main AP does not work, with the correct setup the traffic is carried back to the main servers over the MESH :) We are doing more aggressive mobile testing with the our RWR-HPG to see what they can really do with fast hand-off and VoIP. Very cool protocol :) 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.

Just use MT! Mikrotik and OSPF. Forget about these automated meshing systems, which require one vendor, etc. Plus, I know what that is going to do vs some unknown algorithm doing something unforeseen. Really, other than rapid STP, what else can these things do! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Junk Mail Sent: Monday, October 29, 2007 7:30 AM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] Alternative to Meraki mesh?? Download the MIT roofnet project files , then select an SOC hardware platform and several of you get together hire a linux systems architect on contract and have him re-compile to your chosen platform. Or you could beat the distro (forge it) into submission on the SOC platform chosen yourselves, albeit, I think you'll find it is not that expensive to contract it. mw On Thu, 2007-10-25 at 08:09 -0700, Jeromie Reeves wrote: > You can dump their software and build your own.
