It is good. I guess i would split it into two sentences. s/ and /. It /
I will try to find time to read through the entire man page.
I just found the manpage section Sven was talking about. This quote was a bit out of context because B.A.T.M.A.N. indeed considers the throughput when choosing the best gateway. This probably sounds better:
In level 1, B.A.T.M.A.N tries to find the best available connection by considering the gateway's advertised throughput as well as the link quality towards the gateway.
