<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Hi Freifunker,<br>
<br>
In our village we have around 40 FF nodes and 3x 5GHz backbone p2p links <br>
between 3 dedicated Freifunk nodes.<br>
The settings we used till FF 1.6.29 to set those 5GHz links as prefered <br>
links was the following:<br>
We used the OLSR LQ factor field to set the ETX value to a value īsmaller <br>
than 1 ... with the entry "IP:100.0" the ETX was than around 0.0x ...
that <br>
leads to a "alway use the 5GHz backbone link" behavior.<br>
>From now on with the 1.6.30 release ... the OLSR LQ factor field with <br>
"IP:100.0" increases the ETX to something around 90.. or better the
new <br>
"COST" metric is very high ... so the backbone is not used anymore.
Is there <br>
a chance to lower the ETX value to dedicated neigbors ???<br>
What settings do we have to change to set the ETX artificially lower than 1 <br>
????<br>
<br>
