Hi all, In hope that anyone can shine a light on my problem, I post my findings here.
I´ve set up 4 (four) WRT54GL routers with HSMM-MESH firmware. All routers are v.1.1 and has been serving as regular routers before so I know they are OK from a HW and radio perspective.
THe issue I have is that the mesh seems unconditionally unstable. Some router cannot see the mesh at all, others can hook up with another mesh for a short while and then loose the connection resulting in that the neighboring node just sits in the list of previous neighbors forever.
I´ve tried to manually synchronize the time and date of the units, but with no success so apparantly the time and date is not cruicial for the function.
One of the routers is a gateway node and connected to internet using WAN port, the others are just loose nodes without any wired connections.
Has anyone else experienced this and have a solution to the problem ?
I also should mention that the nodes are spread out in my house so the range is absolutely no issue here. |
