Purpose of this test was to verify internet connection of my
android phone in mesh mode through the internet gateway of my
network.<br>
<strong>Setup:</strong> 2 Picostations flashed with default
Commotion, 1android (HTC Desire) ,1 Linux DeskTop. <br>
N01 Picostation as internet gateway via ethernet cable on LAN
port. <br>
<br>
<br>
Setting.<br>
-Android :rooted ,ad-hoc mode active,no-encryption,IP static
5.x.x.x.<br>
-Picostations :Both with no-encryption.<br>
-Linuk Desktop:no-encryption,commotion mesh applet used to set
wifi card.<br>
<br>
No problems with LinuxDesktop.I can connect to internet and the
applet(mesh status view ,debug log) works well.<br>
<br>
Android.<br>
The mesh tether looks like described somewhere in the commotion
web site.<br>
I can visualize the link window with three neighbors,LQ
status,NLQ status and the gateway icon.<br>
The info window reports the same wifi setting as in the active
profile.<br>
Ping works with all the nodes an I can connect the phone to the
administration page of both Picostation.<br>
<br>
BUT.<br>
I couldn't connect Android phone to Internet in mesh mode.<br>
Absolutely no way.<br>
(in infrastructure mode I can connect and I see the commotion
splash screen).<br>
<br>
Where I was wrong?<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>

to Adam and Dan's guidelines I have arrived at a good point .
<br>
My HTC Desire is rooted,Clockworkmod is installed.
<br>
I have installed a patch to enable the ad-hoc mode on my mobile
and I have installed CommotionMeshTether-pr3.apk .
<br>
<br>
The ad-hoc mode works but only with WEP or no-security.
<br>
No WPA/WPA2.
<br>
It could be a problem of the patch?
<br>
Any suggestion to overcome this?
<br>
I want to see my HTC connected as a node of the the commotion mesh
!
<br>
<br>
Last comment.When I run Mesh Tether the default ip address is
10.xxx and not 5.xx as I was expecting.

The purpose is to connect it on the commotion mesh network.
<br>
I have already installed the lates Mesh Tether version that I
have
<br>
downloaded form the commotion web site.
<br>
After few trials I have realized that the phone cannot see
other
<br>
near nodes in adhoc mode.
<br>
The reason is,as explained in the commotion web site,that the
ad-hoc
<br>
mode is not set and to this, the phone has to be rooted
before.
<br>
Now.
<br>
Before to go through Google is there any one that can send
some
<br>
guidelines on how to root the phone and activate the ad-hoc
mode.I
<br>
need some guidelines not the details.
<br>
I prefer to get some help form people that already did it
before.
<br>
Thanks.

Here's a quick resource on rooting:

Perhaps Will Hawkins can reply, but I believe the new version of
<br>
Commotion-Android he's working on doesn't require root access
anymore.
