The problem here is that the networking/libiproute/iplink.c from busybox in OpenWrt 18.04.x has the code for the "master" interface configuration disabled. You have various options:

* switch to the current release OpenWrt 19.07 * switch from busybox's iplink applet to the package ip-full * use netifd to configure the interfaces [1] * use brctl to configure the bridge slave interfaces

brctl addif mesh-bridge eth0

Kind regards, Sven
