\paragraph{Mesh Point}
|
||||
|

Mesh Point (802.11s) is only supported by some mac80211 drivers. It requires the iw package
|
||||
to be installed to setup mesh links. OpenWrt creates mshN mesh point interfaces.

WDS is a non-standard mode which will be working between two Broadcom devices for instance
