[WLANware] Cisco Aironet 1200 in a mesh

[Mitar]

Hi!

I got donated Cisco Aironet 1200 and I am wondering how could I use it
in an OLSR/ad-hoc mesh. As far as I know it does not support neither
Linux neither OLSR? I was thinking of maybe using it as a simple
repeater (gets a wifi frame, sends a wifi frame) but I really do not
know how would this influence a mesh. Probably it could work as it
would only propagate frames. But still - what about timings (there
will still be a delay when repeating), those nodes which will get
duplicate frames will probably solve this already on a link level (the
same as some reflections), but will it interfere (colissions) with
packets sent later on from the originating node?

(I am not even sure if I set setup this on Cisco.)

Any experience with this? Any suggestions?
