[Olsr-users] Using multiple radio cards

[Derek C]

Hi Victor,

My "holy grail" would be multi card, multi frequency AND high speed MESH
nodes that don't suffer from bandwidth halving due to repeating which
normal single radio MESH nodes.  It seems to me if I'm going to try to
make a new network I really should try to get the speed up (now that
ADSL2+) is almost ready to go from the telephone providers.

thanks,

Derek
