True. Now, one thing I had in the back of my mind is that OLSR can actually run over any interface.

OLSR Is usually done over ad-hoc wifi interface, but you can run it over -say- an ethernet link between two nodes ..; or -why not- a VPN tunnel.

So, in the end, even if there is no direct radio-contact with other nodes, you could -sort of- "fake" it by connecting nodes over the internet. It would probably only require to set up a (say) OpenVPN server in some datacenter.

I never thought of this. Very interesting. I may have found a winter project to try. Perhaps I can find some folks on the ampr net 44 list to try this with?
