I'm not sure how far this goes (some tests would be needed) but I'm sure you would need the same sources (including all patches, same compiler, may be even binary compability?). > Checked it with -r 2 -p 10.4.5.30 which is down at this time, reachable > via Atheros nodes. > => 10.4.5.30 ( 86) 10.4.2.72 [ ath0:1], gw_class 40 - > 2048KBit/256KBit, gateway failures: 0 > 10.4.2.2 (140) 10.4.2.72 [ ath0:1], gw_class 40 - > 2048KBit/256KBit, gateway failures: 0 > 10.4.2.71 (150) 10.4.2.72 [ ath0:1], gw_class 40 - > 2048KBit/256KBit, gateway failures: 0 Batman has an internal blackhole detection. The olsr dyn_gw is a hack (its just pinging the outside world which works in many cases) - batman has this functionality inside. As every traffic flows through the batman tunnel (forth and back) batman can "observe" the traffic and detect blackholes (nodes announcing internet without a connection) much better. As soon as you generate traffic batman will switch the gateway. Regards, Marek
