<html><body bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><div>Hi there!</div><div><br></div><div>In fact you're right, I have observed the same problem using a linux bridge between two wireless interfaces (without olsr). The first interface was configured on adhoc mode and the second on ap mode. I thought that the problem was the linux bridge, so I've upgrade it (I've used the last version) ==> same problem.</div><div>I've implemented my own bridge using click modular router (at kernel mode) ==> same result.</div><div>Finally, I've used the same Linux bridge between two wired interface ==> the problem has disappeared!!!</div><div><br></div><div> </div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.292969); -webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); font-size: medium;"><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.300781); -webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.234375); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.234375);">Mehdi Bezahaf</span></font></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.292969); -webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); font-size: medium;"><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 17px; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.300781); -webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.234375); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.234375);">Ph.D student at university Pierre et Marie curie (Paris).</span></font></span></div><div><br><br></div><div><br>On Nov 30, 2010, at 3:53 AM, Mitar <<a href="mailto:mmitar@gmail.com">mmitar@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br><br></div><div></div><blockquote type="cite"><div><span>Hi!</span><br><span></span><br><span>On Tue, Nov 30, 2010 at 3:34 AM, Aaron Rosen <<a href="mailto:arosen@clemson.edu">arosen@clemson.edu</a>> wrote:</span><br><blockquote type="cite"><span>Is there another way around this?</span><br></blockquote><span></span><br><span>What do you use for bridging?
