If you have BMan running then ensure you turn off 802.11 forwarding (else you making it do double the work)

Nope. At least, not yet. I am playing with #Meshtastic and to a lesser degree, raw #LoRa packets.

I also wrote scripts to set up an 802.11 mesh network using whatever random hardware you have lying around.

Right now it is focused on Debian-based distros and tested with various models of Raspberry Pi boards. I haven't been actively working on guerrilla-radio lately on account of other projects taking priority.

802.11 is like adhoc mode but with optional forwarding if I am correct?

It goes through things like Ethernet on bus, CSMA/CD. Token ring. Token bus.

Then a section on bridging and how it works and the various kinds, and pit falls. Next section I am going onto is a section on the spanning tree protocol for loop-free (but redundant) bridge topologies.

If you want to learn networking then this is the book. Very approachable. Radia does a great job.
