Thanks for the analysis, I'll try to get this solved with the driver.

I'm evaluating the batmand for routing multicast audiostream in a mesh. Batmand seems to be doing the routing better than olsr, but the lack of multicast is a problem, hence batman-adv.

I tried batman-adv and multicast routing with couple of laptops, but it did not work quite well. Some packages seemed to be left ping-ponging in the mesh, while others disappeared completely. Is batman-adv multicast being actively used somewhere?
