<div>maybe (in addtion to pinging) verify if olsrd packets from the other side arrive regulary (ideally log all seqnr of them (tcpdump|grep[|sed] is enough), so u can independently calculate lq based on this,...)?<br></div>
<div><br></div><div>imho it `s quite likely that if pings work, olsrd braocast packets will work aswell, ..</div><div>if so, there would be non influence on olsr/routing from any layer <=2 (which means you problem is probably inside olsr and/or its config)</div>

</div>Stuck beacons are there but I have not noticed that it would<br>
correlate. I will do a little bit more thorough tests/analysis. Also<br>
pings (every second) worked without problems in both directions while<br>
OLSR was dropping the route.<br>
<br>
But yes, I also have it as a main suspect. Will investigate more.<br>
<br>
But I also read here:<br>

<br>
that this workaround has impact on Broadcom hardware:<br>
<br>
It has been observed that this little TSF deviants confused devices<br>
with Broadcom chipsets, such as the Linksys WRT54GL: They were still<br>
working but they stopped sending beacons.<br>
<br>
Is this true? Is there no other less hacky solution? Is there any work<br>
being done to fix this in HAL?<br>
<br>
This is why I am not really enthusiast about using this approach.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
