[B.A.T.M.A.N.] Wireless Bridge

[A. AlBoori]

Good Day all,
I have Wireless DSL router and  Open Mesh Router. Is it possible to
bridge the Open Mesh Router with Wireless DSL router wirelessly to get
the internet?

Thank You

Open Mesh router == a router from open-mesh.com? We are not related to
open-mesh.com

Kind regards,

Thank You for your reply. Yes however it runs B.A.T.M.A.N mesh
protocol.  I wonder. is it possible to do it?

If yes, what configuration/commands i have to do?

It is unlikely your dsl modem can run any mesh protocol.  (The Open-Mesh 
OM1P runs "Robin", which uses olsr)

However, if you have the Open-Mesh OM1P device, you can reflash it with 
OpenWrt and turn it into a WDS repeater, assuming your dsl modem 
supports this.

Your best source of information on robin and OM1P is here: 
http://robin.forumup.it/

OM1P as a generic AP is discussed here: 
http://robin.forumup.it/about1534-robin.html

If you have the newer Open-Mesh MR500, you are out of luck.  That 
firmware is not open-source.

Why do you want to run it as mesh? Maybe this wireless router can be 
configured as station. Or both devices can be configured to support 4 address 
mode. But this would mean that this is off topic.

But I don't have any information about the hw - so I cannot make any useful 
statements at all.

Kind regards,

Yes, batman-adv allow bridging your LAN into your WLAN.

Please contact open-mesh.com to learn how to do so:
