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.
