Hi,

I have Batman-adv r1575 on openwrt 8.09.2, but i can't find any originators.
here is what i did:

On a clean install of openwrt with batman:
Enable wifi
Set channel to 1
set mode to ahdemo
restart

Is there something I missed?

what did you restart ?
You may want to configure batman-adv to use the wifi interface. In addition to 
that you should set the cellid if you use ahdemo mode.

hm, would be nice to know on what architecture... :)

you should set the mtu to batman-interface-mtu + 24 (so usually 1524) - but i doubt that originator messages are dumped because of this.

it reminds me of initial tries with mixed batman 0.1 and batman 0.2 nodes. the protocol obviously isn't compatible between those.

otherwise it would be interesting to know whether your wifi interface and the batman interface are UP, and what /proc/net/batman-adv/interfaces says (wifi interface should be listed as active).

a tcpdump on your wifi interface should show whether any/originator messages are sent or received via the radio interface.

regards,

Hi,

The problem lay with me not setting the cellid, and incorrectly setting the
channel (put the option line at the wrong place). Thanks for the help, esp
marek for all the IRC help.
