I hope other than setting the interface "ath0" in /proc/net/batman-advanced/interfaces - i dont need any other configuration changes.
Since I can batping between the two routers i guess the layer 2 connectivity is established between these guys - am just wondering if they should be able to forward requests like dhcp over multiple hop (1 hop and above)....
Yes, a working batping indicates that the connection between both modules is given. The DHCP request should be forwarded without problems. Your setup is misconfigured somewhere.
Could you please show the output of "brctl show br0" and "cat /proc/net/batman-adv/interfaces" on both nodes. You can check where the dhcp request dies by using tcpdump or batdump.
