[Olsr-users] [Olsr-dev] Strange debug message from olsrd

this is a warning that olsrd received the exactly same packet from one of
its neighbor more than once,..
infact olsrd received a packet with an seqnr which is identical to the
previous packet,..

known cause for example is the buggy wireless driver of routeros (if u use
for example use wds links (with bad signal) between mikrotik routerboards
you will get duplicate packets seldomly)
or maybe you built a layer 2 loop, or found another buggy hardware/device
driver,..
mdns might also produce duplicates

btw: olsrd versoins that report this, are not affected by duplicate olsr
packets (they ignore the duplicate), but older olsrd versions interprete a
duplicate packet as extreme packet loss (65535 packets lost *G) and will set
the links lq to 0,...

as you get many erros of this type, i recommend to find out what causes it,
as other software may also react bad on duplicates
