olsrd runs in background, updating the operating systems routing table,..
(it doesn`t need to interact with apps to get their traffic)

your application (and every other app on you device) just uses the
connectivity the operating system got by the routes generated by olsrd,..

BUT: porting olsrd to windows mobile will not be trivial, and it will never
have all olsrd functions (win32 does not either)
and olsrd (of olsr.org) is written in c not c#

afaik there are some old windows-mobile-olsrds around (limited funcionality,
closed source, ...), but i don`t know of anything really "useable" (but i
never really searched for)

p.s. it would be much easier to use olsrd if you replace winmobile with
android,..
