[Olsr-users] One WLAN interface for both 801.11 infrastructure & OLSR?

[Rajesh Narayanan]

Not sure what the configuration is. But I dont think its likely to work.
Atheros supports multiple modes but I didnt see anything related to a
dual-mode operation.

Let me know what the interfaces need to be set to. I have the configuration
here  and can try it quite quickly.
