3.3.2

Gateway Router Support

The second type of mesh router was an Internet gateway router. These routers contained two

network devices, one D-Link DWL-AG530 802.11a wireless card to connect to the mesh

network, and a wired Ethernet card to connect to the Internet. These mesh routers were

configured as gateways, and, as described in Chapter 5, advertised themselves as such so that

other mesh routers would know where to forward packets destined to an external network. The

Figure 3-2 below shows how one of these devices is configured.

3.3.3

Wireless and Wired Client Support

The last type of mesh router was a client gateway router. These routers contained two network

devices, one D-Link DWL-AG530 802.11a wireless card to connect to the mesh network, and a

second network card to connect clients to the mesh network. The second network card was either

through a wireless network shown in Figure 3-3 or a wired network with the same hardware

configuration as Figure 3-2, depending on the type of clients that were connected. For this

project, there were two machines that could be configured as a client gateway, one with a wired

Ethernet adapter and another with a U.S. Robotics USR2410 802.11b wireless card.
