ok, a few questions.  why pebble and not something like meshbox?
doesn't meshbox auto-configure for mesh-type networks (handling routing
and the like) and therefore able to deal with changes and outages?

second, when using a bunch of these boxes do you stick to just one
wireless channel?  if you use multiple channels, do some boxes need
multiple wifi cards, or can a single card handle two frequencies?
