Have you deployed 100 radios in a single mesh? We are used to doing frequency allocation/management and with a single radio mesh AP all radios need to be on the same frequency correct? We are planning on using dual-radio nodes but the 2.4G will be for the client access and the 5.8G will be for the mesh.
This is a huge project with 6,000 nodes in a one square mile community.

Tplink wdr3500, we've deployed more than 100, running nice with barrierbreaker tplink wdr3600 is identical, but with gigabit ethernet in some places, one or the other will be easier to find (availability) and cheaper. Tplink wdr4300 is like wdr3600 but with 3x3 on one of the bands (5ghz IIRC) so it has an extra, single-band antenna
HTH, cheers!

Anyone have any recommendations for a good dual radio mesh node for batman-adv that won't break the bank? I'm looking at having wired clients, but two mesh radios to keep throughput high. 802.11n radios also required.
Thanks!
