</div>don't waste your time. It makes no sense to add a scheduler to an<br>
interface if you can't estimate the available bandwidth on the uplink<br>
of that interface.<br>
<br>
because your available bandwidth is unknow (wireless interface), and<br>
probably variable, you can't set up an efficient scheduler to<br>
prioritize OLSR packets... unless you want to understimate your<br>
channel capacity ...<br>
