I am trying to setup a set of computers to connect over an ad-hoc network, or mesh (on top of adhoc) using batman-adv.
The adhoc network is able to establish a station, but I can't ping one computer from another.
When using batman-adv to create a mesh on top of the adhoc network, the bat0 device never seems to have any traffic.
Here is the setup for two computers:
Code:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After setting up the config, I am using the following to start services:
Code:
# Load batman-adv module
modprobe batman-adv
# Replace phy0-ibss0 with your wireless interface name (use 'iw dev' to find it)
batctl if add phy0-ibss0
Activate the interfaces
ifconfig phy0-ibss0 up
ifconfig bat0 up
Assign IP address to bat0 interface (use different IPs for each device)
ifconfig bat0 192.168.2. netmask 255.255.255.0 # Use 192.168.2.2 for the other device
What is going wrong here?
