Re: MESH network (any sort of?)

Hi.
I'm also interesting about mesh using ESP8266.
Now I use MySensors.org solution with ATmega328p and nRF24L01+ , it's possible make small tree network topology ..
Work good .. but have more not finished bug ..
using ESP8266 have some benefit
1.secure
2.big output power +20db
3.in chip is all .. radio and MCU
4.price
5.if good read then have some power mode for less then 10mA and still is connected to AP ..
..
Yes use ESP8266 in wall switch to control light or small sensor to control temperature is not ideal .. but ESP8266 have SPI then is possible connect another less power used RF chip .. and ESP8266 use as repeater or gateway .. can connected nRF24L01 or CC1101 ..
May be is possible use ESP8266 internal encryption to protect data between nRF24L01 and another sensor.. etc..
chandan2002x write more about your solution pls..
regards.
