Are you use single hops in the mesh, or relaying through other nodes? I fear that relaying will affect the performance quite significantly. You can emulate this situation by using 'iptables' on one node to drop all packets from another node so that the mesh will auto-magically reconfigure an alternate route via a 3rd node. command would be like: iptables -A INPUT -m mac --mac-source 00:E0:4C:A2:7E:66 -j DROP email me if you want a more detailed discription. Have fun, Mungewell. Interesting project, glad to see that your testing is going well.

I'm all for self-provisioning of telecoms and would *kill* for tech like this. I also have a number of friends who live on farms and when I told them about mesh networks, Antoine van Gelder's project and this they all got very excited. Seems they're all pining for decent communications. I have been following your blog for some time now and I must say the closer the MP gets to completion the more excited I’m getting.

Looking forward to seeing how big a mesh can get, and how it handles high load. I mean theoretically, a call only takes like 64kbps, right? So conservative 3 or 4 hops means ~10mbps which is still like 100 calls! Very Impressive!
