[OLSR-users] wlan and lan bridged?

[Sven-Ola Tuecke]

Hi,

beware of Briding endless-feedback (aka Broadcast Ping/Pong). Small example:

Device1(Wifi+Eth bridged)
|wifi    |wire
Device2(Wifi+Eth bridged)

Because of the two connections (wifi + wire) you will experimence a very 
high packet load if the first broadcast packet is received...
