Hello everyone,
I would like to build a small mesh network based on 802.11s using
open80211s for performance testing.
After reading linuxwireless.org <http://linuxwireless.org>, I came up
with "iw" command to create new virtual interface and MP.
Here is my wireless card
"Intel PRO/Wireless 3845ABG"
Its installed driver
"iwl3945"
This wireless card is not listed
in http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Devices
<http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Devices>
but the driver is in the
list http://linuxwireless.org/en/developers/Documentation/mac80211#mac80211drivers
<http://linuxwireless.org/en/developers/Documentation/mac80211#mac80211drivers>
The OS is ubuntu Intrepid Ibex 8.10 with kernel 2.6.27-9-generic
After creating new interface for mesh "iw dev wlan0 interface add mesh
type mp mesh_id 100". I turned the mesh interface up by "ifconfig mesh up".
I got following error message
" SIOCSIFFLAGS: Name not unique on network "
I got the same error message for " ifconfig mesh 192.168.1.1 "
I search on the net but not much help.
Thank very much,
Thierry
