Take a look at: http://www.docs.uu.se/docs/research/projects/selnet/lunar/ as this sounds like it may work for your project if the capability of the wireless cards you're using are OK. Hey Mike, Nice find, it looks pretty good. It pushes the routing discovery to a custom layer below IP in a

AFAIK bridging isn't an option on wireless, at least not for this kind of relay network, if it were then it would be possible to treat all the nodes as a single segment with no need for layer 3 routing. But then again the subject line did suggest a routing question not a wireless question ;o) my

routing challenge

Got a challenging routing problem, and perhaps some of you can help me. The network is as follows. We have 12 "standalone" nodes with wireless lan cards. The nodes are placed on a line, and the average distance between each node is 400 meters. With good wireless cards, that means that we can rea
