Abstract
A method and system for a dynamic metric and wireless hello protocol for use in a wireless mesh network are disclosed. In one embodiment a computer-implemented method, comprises determining a route for a packet to travel through a mesh network. A first time period needed to transmit the packet between a first node and a second node in the mesh network is estimated. The first time period is normalized to generate a normalized value. A route is calculated using the normalized value.
