Hi Linus,
	I thought that the dead node should be pushed away after a
while, not 3 minutes. So that was my mistake...indeed everything was workin=
g correctly!

I tried it again five minutes ago, and everything went as I expected!

Thanks very much!

Regards

P.S. batctl td was not so usefull since I have to point it to wlan0..and
obviously I can see all the packets there.
