Hello,

I've been trying to set up an 802.11s network (between just two nodes
initially), I have followed the howto at
http://www.open80211s.org/trac/wiki/HOWTO-0.2.1 however when I run "iw
dev mesh station dump" nothing is listed, I've set my machine's IPs to
be 10.0.0.1 and 10.0.0.2 and they both have the same mesh id and on
the default channel (ie I havent specified one). I'm wondering how I
would start finding out what the problem is? I'm using an ath5k card
with wireless-testing (quite a recent revsion, havent worked out how
to get git to tell me which one exactly!)

Cheers

Keir

It would be good if someone *cough* could move this to the Linux
wireless wiki for iw when they get a chance:

I haven't tested this myself, sorry, but I've CC'd a few people who
might be able to help and have tested this on ath5k.

git describe
git tag -l| grep master | tail -1
