`painlessMesh` creates a mesh network that is independent from any other/wider network. If you want to get information from your mesh to the wider network a bridge is currently needed. One option is to use a linux computer (raspberry pi) with the [easyMeshed library](github.com/BlackEdder/easyMesheD), which allows the raspberry pi to act like a end node. That node connects to the mesh and all other nodes on the mesh can send their data to the raspberry pi.

Another approach is to have a STA (or AP) only node that digests the information it receives and somehow sends it to the wider network. This is the approach discussed in #37.

It would be great if someone would develop a library that would make it straightforward to people to do this. Maybe we could have a group of libraries building on painlessMesh which add various capabilities. |
