Has anyone been playing with BATMAN on WiMAX hardware? I have a project that I had to back burner for a while and I am getting ready to start active work again. I am looking to see if I can find a mini PCI WiMAX card that I can use in a Mesh AP, where WiMAX will be used for the backbone and both WiFi and 10/100 Ethernet for clients to connect to the AP. The idea is for drop-and-go network coverage in disaster areas or other places where you want to get connectivity up in a hurry. I have a dev board and am finally able to get some parts to help me work on it again. Power supply, PCI to MiniPCI adapter, PoE hardware, enclosure.. and of course a WiMAX card. I am also shopping for a WiFi card too, so recommendations there would be welcome. Though to be fair I haven't been googling on that much yet, the WiMAX backhaul is my main concern at the moment. Doing the WiFi AP part should be relatively easy as it is a mature technology w/r/t parts and drivers availability. Any advice? So far it seems that Intel has the greatest presence in my googling for WiMAX on Linux.
Thanks so much!
