[Olsr-users] [SUGGESTION] Interface no up and/or running

[Matteo Danieletto]

No, I want say it works with ethernet, instead this if(((ifs.int_flags & IFF_U) == 0) || ((ifs.int_flags & IFF_RUNNING)==0))
is always true with WiFi interface.

I tried several WiFi drivers and Kernel and always there was Interface error.
