Hello, I wonder that what happens when I try to reach to a node where it is in non-line of sight position for me. I have to make some number of 'hops' over nodes in my line of sight to reach to non-line of sight node for me. I wonder that, if ad-hoc is not supported, can I reach to node where it is in the non-line of sight position for me in a mesh - networking by using BBBW?
