I know I've made b43 work in the past. What do you mean, "triggering a scan"? What command line does that translate into? I've tried all variations of "iw ... scan ..." I could think of and eventually I got this: root@OpenWrt-2:~# iw dev mesh0 station dump Station 00:21:29:8a:e6:01 (on mesh0) inactive time: 811216 ms rx bytes: 546 rx packets: 13 tx bytes: 334 tx packets: 5 signal: -6 dBm tx bitrate: 1.0 MBit/s mesh llid: 0 mesh plid: 0 mesh plink: LISTEN Yay, a blip!!! But the other WRT54GL still shows nothing, and of course I still can't ping.
