DIY Wifi Mesh for everyone with commodity Hardware and Free and Open Source Software OpenWrt! The B.A.T.M.A.N. advanced protocol can be used to build a mesh of virtually any size ! Wired and Wi-fi ! In this episode we will build a Wi-fi mesh with 10 nodes in order to serve W-fi on 3 SSIDs everywhere in the house. I will use six triband mesh systems from Asus (Lyra MAP AC-2200, ASIN B072XT1CHN) in order to build a transparent fast-roaming (802.11r) Wi-Fi mesh (802.11s) network with Multiuser MIMO (MU-MIMO). Vendors like vilo, Amazon (eero), tp-link (deco), linksys (velop), asus (zenwifi), huawei (wifi mesh 7) are marketing mesh systems. In my oppinion however, the BEST MESH in 2022 is the one that you build on your own ;-)
