[Olsr-users] Using multiple radio cards

Hi Victor,

There still is the problem with adhoc networking - separate nodes will
only see neighboring nodes if they are on the same frequency.

It doesn't appear to be like having STAs connecting to an AP where the
STAs will seek (across all frequencies) and associate to the strongest AP
based on ESSID.

This would mean one OLSRd / adhoc node could be 100 metres from another
but if the frequencies are not the same - no communciations.....
