Basically I agree here. Setting the transfer rate helps stabilizing the 
network. Not so sure why you say "in OLSR networks" as this is more a wifi 
setting rather than a mesh protocol thing. Is that integrated into OLSR ?

batman-adv-packets are ethernet broadcast packets and follow the same 
broadcast mechanisms as IP broadcasts.
