[Olsr-users] problem running OLSRD

You could try something like this:

#       wlan0: WLAN MANET interfacea, ath5k driver
auto    wlan0
iface   wlan0 inet static
        wireless-mode ad-hoc
        wireless-channel 11
        address   (yours)
        netmask   255.255.0.0
        broadcast 255.255.255.255
        up   iw dev wlan0 ibss join "(your ibss)" 2462 (your cell MAC address)
        up   echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/wlan0/disable_ipv6
        up   echo 14400 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/neigh/wlan0/base_reachable_time
#       key  d:0:(yours)

WPA doesn't work yet on ad hoc links with >2 nodes
WEP doesn't make sense a lot....

On the iw line: I use a mix of settings in the interfaces file and the iw up command.

I preferred the modified madwifi ahdemo static ad hoc mode (no scans). I switched to ath5k recently , following others. Ath5k ad hoc isn't perfect, but it works.
