Could be usefull

I could make the case that for Civil Defense purposes ALL routers should fall back to mesh network mode IMMEDIATELY upon failure of their primary WAN connection. It should be baked into the routers firmware, testable by simply unplugging the network feed. It should be required by law.
Yes, I dream.
Failing that, you might find a package to do this (somehow) but it is a function that belongs in the router.
We should start agitating for this functionality. I am highly supportive of this. -- Sent from my Linux box. Regards de KC6KGE. A very happy Flex-3000 user.
