Hey Maurice!
I suppose we must since we've come this far;
----- "<Esc>:read !/sbin/iw wlan0 info | sed 's/\t/ /g'" starts
Interface wlan0
ifindex 9
wdev 0x200000001
addr 00:c0:ca:92:32:f0
type mesh point
wiphy 2
channel 9 (2452 MHz), width: 20 MHz, center1: 2452 MHz
txpower 20.00 dBm
----- "<Esc>:read !/sbin/iw wlan0 info | sed 's/\t/ /g'" ends
Note the width. Given the rural setting here you'd think we could have doubled
that which does work with the open mesh setup.
Now can we go back to wired? I see wifi as nothing but drag on a system but I suppose if there were no other choice then open mesh would be the way to go and
use 'iw' to set the width according to the amount of local wireless traffic is around. Mind you, dopending on the range, it might be different for each mesh point and that would cause much grief.
Oh well. I've done my part.
Life is good,
Guy Robot
