[OLSR-users] Multi-Radio Multi-Channel support in OLSR???

I also want this dual radio mesh working, the problem with OLSR is
that it mainly reuses the same channel instead of taking the fastest
route in terms of throughput.

I wonder if the new algo used by BATMAN will solve the problem.

I will test it soon with some friends, see here:

If you have 6 machines and 3 ethernet cables, you could make a try.
