Athough the interface is down batman still runs internally to trigger events, 
timeouts, link quality updates, etc. That does not mean the packets go out 
although the logs might indicate packets were sent. You can easily verify 
whether the packets leave the system or not by using the battools or tcpdump. 

I agree with Simon: If you experience connection problems first make sure that 
ping & friends run smoothly.
