Hi, If you'd like this kind of userland wifi mesh stuff to show up, we first need someone to step up as net80211 adhoc/injection maintainer. These userland mesh implementations rely on direction injection of wifi frames to work and I believe our support is currently 'tricky'. It also isn't at all supported in any useful way for 802.11n for the time being, as the "injection" is done via raw frames, rather than done via vap_start, and I think this potentially confuses a lot of things.
