Example 1
Suppose you have three BreadCrumb devices, called A, B, and C. Each has two radios.
BreadCrumb device A’s radios are on channels1 and 8, B’s are on 8 and 11, and C’s are on 1
and 11. All three BreadCrumb devices are using the default ESSID of "breadcrumb".
Assuming that all three BreadCrumb devices are within radio range of one another, the
network will be connected,
Example 2
Now suppose that you change the ESSID of BreadCrumb device C to "lonely". The network
will adjust to this change.
Note that BreadCrumb device C can no longer communicate with A or B, and vice versa.
