Hi all,
I have nodes A, B, C and all are mesh.
Node A is the exit node - connected via ethernet cable on eth0 and
node B and node C are connected A via mesh.
So, when I connected node C via ethernet, does it start using
ethernet
as backhaul or still keeping mesh.
AFAIK, there is still a bug that makes this not work.
You should not be connecting nodes via cable that can see each other
via mesh, unless you disable meshing via wireless.
that is, when a client connects via wifi to node C,
does the traffic
go via option 1 or option 2?
option 1:
client wifi <--> node C <--> mesh iface <--> node A <--> router
option 2:
client wifi <--> node C <--> ethernet eth0 <--> router
the ideal would be to aggregate the links, use the best available, but
as I understand, there is a bug on batman-adv that makes this not work.
