Yes.

Like I said in the post to Vigneswaran, you should use the same subnet 
for all network interfaces conencted with each other, but different 
subnets for network interfaces not talking with each other.

Think about a wifi-channel as some kind of ethernet switch with a lot of 
packet loss between some links. Everyone connected to the same switch 
should share a subnet.

If you configured your interfaces this way (one ethernet subnet, one 
backlink subnet, one mesh subnet) you should test it WITHOUT olsrd.

Can you ping your 1-hop neighbors? If not, something is not right and 
OLSRd will not fix it.
