Does anyone have any ideas as to what might be required to get at least an unstable version that will allow setting into mesh-mode and tinkering? I want to suspect that it just requires the module to advertise it can be set into mesh mode, but I know less than I would like to about wireless driver development.\r\n\r\n    $ sudo nmcli dev set wlx8c3badbf2592 managed no\r\n    $ sudo ip link set wlx8c3badbf2592 down\r\n    $ sudo ip link set wlx8c3badbf2592 name wlan1\r\n    $ sudo iwconfig wlan1 mode \r\n    ad-hoc     managed    master     monitor    repeater   secondary  \r\n    $ sudo iwconfig wlan1 mode ^C\r\n    $ sudo iw dev wlan1 set type mesh\r\n    command failed: Operation not supported (-95)"}}
