Hi Guiseppe,

Hm, olsr is somehow quite agnostic of most layer 2 problems including  
the "automatic channel joining"
you describe below.

I think we would all benefit from some kind of layer-integration or  
layer-harmonizing driver like
Xian (http://xian.sourceforge.net/)

Currently AFAIK there is no code in olsrd which will handle channel  
selection.

hope it helped,
a.

there's no place like 127.0.0.1
