[Olsr-dev] olsr strange behaving / nearly no outgoing packets / summary

[Bastian Bittorf]

sorry for confusion: i tried several configs,
but it leads to the same point. to make a point:

i use the LAN-interface eth0, untagged, unbridged.

just to summarize: it does make any difference if
i use WAN or WIFIDEV the situation always is:

i can "hear" via tcpdump the olsr-traffic from
other routers on all other network-devices.

the daemon itself cannot hear it. it looks like this.
it doesnt print anything in the debug output.

strange too: i cannot here the olsr-traffic from my
own daemon directly on the box. it seems there is
no olsr-traffic locally generated.

bye, bastian.

PS: and it makes no difference if i change the metric from etx_ff to etx_ffeth
