I guess the point is not whether you would like to or not, but rather if
it is feasible with 255+ hops. And we did talk about AODV...
In the Internet I guess that an average hop count would be 20-30 hops
(with max around 60, correct me if I am wrong). So why would one assume
that 255+ hops would be within reach in networks that do not have
bandwidth and scaling capabilities that are even close that of the
Internet?
