GLUON_WLAN_MESH
While Gluon does support some hardware with ath10k-based 5GHz WLAN. ath10k can't support IBSS and 11s
meshing in the same image due to WLAN firmware restrictions.
Setting GLUON_MESH_MESH to ``11s`` or ``ibss`` will enable generation of images for ath10k devices
and install the firmware for the corresponding WLAN mode. Specifically setting to ``11s`` will also
enable the generation of images for targets that are able to run only AP+11s but not AP+IBSS, like
ralink or mediatek. Defaults to ``11s``.
GLUON_BRANCH
Sets the default branch of the autoupdater. If unset, the autoupdater is disabled
by default. For the ``make manifest`` command, GLUON_BRANCH defines the branch to

GLUON_WLAN_MESH
Setting this to ``11s`` or ``ibss`` will enable generation of matching images for devices which don't
support both meshing modes, either at all (e.g. ralink and mediatek don't support AP+IBSS) or in the
same firmware (ath10k-based 5GHz). Defaults to ``11s``.
