Hi,<br><br>Looks like we might be on to a bug here in the olsr dyn-gw. Yes, my opinion is the same as yours. The default route should be removed if the pings do not go through that route. Then I am sure it will behave correctly.
<br><br>For clarification to everyone regarding my setup.<br>Node1 and 2 : Linksys WRT54G routers running the OpenWrt , WhiteRussian, Release RC4<br>OLSR: compiled for RC4.<br><br>For sake of simplicity please ignore the LaptopsA and B. My apologies its just confusing it. The laptops are being used mainly for accessing the Linksys routers console via SSH.

I've asked basically the same thing before, and never got a reply:<br><a href="http://www.olsr.org/pipermail/olsr-users/2006-October/646474.html">http://www.olsr.org/pipermail/olsr-users/2006-October/646474.html</a><br>
