Re: 6lowpan with external radio

I had a look at the fakelb driver,

if I understand it right it just "connect" the raw-frame side of
multiple 6lowpan interfaces with each other, right? So it might be
part of the solution...

the other part should be similar to the tun.c driver... unfortunately
the tun driver got quite complex from what I can see.
