[liberationtech] Setting up an experimental testbed for wireless mesh network

[sailashm at gmail.com]

Hi team,

I am able to configure 3 nodes with BATMAN-adv and they are performing as expected. But I have a few problems which need your help. And also if there are better equipments which I can buy to improve the performance, please let me know. 
1) I am unable to run iperf in my windows 10 laptop.
2) How can I go for video streaming through this mesh network?
3) Are there better open source protocols apart from BATMAN, OLSR, BABEL ? I am trying to use HWMN but unable to do so. Kindly help.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Sailash M
