Using already delevoped BL Mesh library for 2,4 GHz long range radio?

[AndreasA]

I have been looking at the Mesh library for BLE communication and wonder how much work it would be for me to use the same library for a long range 2,4 GHz radio?

Is the mesh library included in nordic connect sdk based on some other open source Mesh library or is it self developed by NordicSemiconductor?

Beast Regards

I'm planing on using nrf52840 for this solution. And have now dropped the BLE mesh library and looking into building a mesh network using openThread. Not sure yet about the range.

Again, 2.4GHz is not a great choice for really long range - due to physics.

But one of the key features of a mesh is that it allows you to make many smaller "hops" to reach a distant point ...
