Here's mine:

ifconfig:

wlan0     Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:60:B3:8C:8D:A8
          inet addr:192.168.3.53  Bcast:255.255.255.255
Mask:255.255.255.255
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:355010 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:312451 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
          RX bytes:46237031 (44.0 MiB)  TX bytes:47123224 (44.9 MiB)
          Interrupt:11 Base address:0x100

/etc/olsrd.conf:

Interface "wlan0"
{
   Ip4Broadcast                255.255.255.255
}

You can still do a "tcpdump -i any -n icmp" to investigate on both side
where you ping packets are lost. Good luck!
