Wow! It works! I just added the line option 'type' 'bridge' to my mesh1 interface and my whole mesh is now working. Thanks!
Was that documented somewhere? It gave me quite a headache for such a simple solution.
Do you mind explaining your solution in greater detail ? So far, I don't quite follow your approach.
Cheers, Marek
As Matthias suggested, I just changed my mesh1 interface, which was just using the eth0 vlan interface, to a bridged interface. So my mesh1 is now a bridge interface with only eth0 on it. (mesh1 is the interface I add to the batman-adv file.)
In my /etc/config/network file, my mesh1 interface now looks like this
config interface 'mesh1' option proto 'none' option type 'bridge' # this line added from before, nothing else changed option ifname 'eth0' option mtu '1528'
It seems batman-adv really does have a problem with vlans on openwrt. Why? I don't know...
