A wireless mesh network comprising a plurality of mobile mesh devices coupled as nodes in a mesh network topology is provided herein. Generally speaking, each mobile mesh device may be a portable, self-contained unit, which does not require network or power wiring to communicate network traffic between the nodes. According to one embodiment, the mobile mesh device may include a plurality of dipole antennas, which are enclosed within the mobile mesh device and configured to forward network traffic. At least one of the dipole antennas may be a frequency adjustable end-fed dipole antenna comprising a channel selection pin, which can be adjusted up or down along the dipole axis to change a resonant frequency of the dipole antenna. A method for setting or adjusting a resonant frequency of a frequency adjustable end-fed dipole antenna is also provided herein.
