Subject: [B.A.T.M.A.N.] Bad link via ethernet using two tl-wr1043nd ports

Hi all!
I'm using OpenWrt trunk (r41296) with batman-adv (2014.2.0) on a TP-Link
WR1043ND using this network configuration file:
http://sprunge.us/SVCI
as you can see batman is running on ports number 1 (eth0.3) and number 3
(eth0.4).

 root@OpenWrt:~# batctl if
 eth0.3: active
 eth0.4: active

I connect this router via ethernet cable to another device running
batman-adv (2014.2.0).
Looking at the link quality with "batctl o" I noticed that sometimes the
link quality is poor using a port and good using the other one port. The
good and the bad port aren't fixed, they switch randomly, so I tend to
exclude an hardware problem. I connected the batman device to port 1
(eth0.3) and laptop on port 3 (eth0.4) and the quality of the batman
link changes from one boot to another:

 root@OpenWrt:~# batctl o
 [B.A.T.M.A.N. adv 2014.2.0, MainIF/MAC: eth0.3/10:fe:ed:7f:3e:80 (bat0
BATMAN_IV)]
