<div dir="ltr"><b>Hi Teco, </b><div><br></div><div>Thanks for your concern and sorry for the late reply </div><div>I will be happy to share my result with you and anyone else who is interested in adhoc networks.</div><div>
<br></div><div>here is the information you asked for;</div><div><ol><li>I am using three Samsung Galaxy S4 (International) GT-I9505</li><li>The SGS4-handsets and other Nexus-tablets are operating under CyanogenMod 10.2 (I've downloaded the pre-build source code and installed it from the ClockWorkMod recovery)<br>
</li><li>The OLSRD version is 0.6.6 (downloaded from <a href="http://www.olsr.org/?q=download">http://www.olsr.org/?q=download</a>)</li></ol><div>Regards the network issues:</div><div><ol><li>The Samsung that establishes the network can see and ping all the other Nexus-tablets that are connected the network.</li>
<li>The other Samsung-handsets see and join the network but can't see or be seen by any other node in the network</li><li>therefore, I'm NOT sure that the SGS4-handsets are connected (except for the network-establish-er)</li>
<li>my "pinging" problem is strange, because if i create a new adhoc network from another SGS4-handset then again it can see and ping all the Nexus-tablets that are connected and can't see the other SGS4-handsets. </li>
<li>I am NOT implementing any smart Gateway.</li></ol>hence:</div><div><ol><li>all SGS4-handset can create an adhoc network</li><li>the adhoc network is seen by all the SGS4-hansets </li><li>when asked to join the adhoc network, and after couple of seconds, all SGS4-handset show this notification: "(IBSS Name) Ad-Hoc Connected" in the Wi-Fi settings) which indicates that they see the adhoc network and they join the network (and it doesn't matter who established it)</li>
</ol><div>Note that:</div></div><div><ol><li>if the Wi-Fi feature is turned off and then again turned on, even the Nexus-tablets can't be seen from the adhoc SGS4-establish-er (and of course the other SGS4) . Besides, unlike before, the Nexus can't see ALL the SGS4-handset (including the adhoc establish-er )</li>
<li>if the Wi-Fi is turned off from the SGS4 (the establish-er) , the Nexus-tablets can still see each other and OLSRD can run normally.</li><li>OLSRD configuration file that is running in all the handset is the same</li>
<li>OLSRD is running normally in all the devices that can see and ping each other </li><li>which means it runs every time (as long as the Wi-Fi doesn't restart) between the SGS4 (adhoc establish-er) and the Nexus-tablets but does not work between the SGS4-handset themselves </li>
</ol><div>Hope I've explained how my networks operates and looking forward to her from you </div></div><div><br></div><div>best regards</div><div><div dir="ltr"><div><br></div><div>Ali, Abubakr</div><div>Research and Development Engineer</div>

I would suggest not running the routing protocol until you have fixed<br>
the link issue, because it complicated debugging the situation. Check<br>
for the easy things first (ip addresses, netmasks, wifi passwords)...<br>
