Hi,
I downloaded the patch from Daniel below and applied to the latest lime-build tree
however when I build this with a make v=S T=ar71xx-mini P=basic
the images dont include a specific image for the tlink tl-wr841n - is there a specific
image I
should use instead ?
Thanks,
Ruairi

Hi Again.
I've been testing 802.11s support on LibreMesh develop branch. These are
the conclusions:
1) I fixed a bug related to the network configuration:
https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/commit/3163e6ed15079e2c760824c6
d1f81837345e2093
This is already comited and soon the binaries available on
http://repo.libremesh.org will have this patch applied (the compilation
process is already running).
2) Good news are that I managed to create a mesh network using 802.11s.
In addition to `mode ieee80211s` also `proto ieee80211s` must be enabled
in the configuration file.
This is my /etc/config/lime
config lime network
list protocols ieee80211s
list protocols lan
list protocols anygw
list protocols batadv:%N1
list protocols bmx6:13
config lime wifi
list modes ieee80211s
Then run: lime-config && lime-apply
This configuration works for me and the two routers are connected.
3) Bad news is that, for some point I don't understand, if "AP" is
enabled in addition to 80211s, the mesh point is not enabled and it does
not work.
So the right configuration (to mesh and AP at same time) would be:
config lime wifi
list modes ieee80211s
list modes ap
list modes apname
But it does not work.
According to "iw list" information, Mesh point + AP is possible, but I
think there is something wrong on LEDE. So I'll investigate a bit more
and talk with LEDE developers if it is an actual LEDE bug.
PS: add Daniel as CC, maybe he can add some extra information for the
resolution of this problem.
I've been in touch with neoraider and he made a fix for this:
https://git.lede-project.org/?p=lede/neoraider/staging.git;a=commit;h=6db7dc
d74aaf23865ff19b515daf8c534414adaf
I also updated the ticket on github, just in case you missed that.
Cheers
Daniel
