I came across a thread previously on this same issue with respect to openwrt.

I tried to change the routing algo following tweaking section of batman wiki as soon as loading the batman_adv module.

I am able to see BATMAN_V under availabile algorithms but available for next instance of batx. I understand it has to be done before this bat0 interface is created, but I am doing this before bringing up bat0 using ifconfig

Mo, it "ifconfig xxxx up" is way to late. It the module has to switched to BATMAN_V before the batX interface is created (this is before the setup function of the netdev is executed in the kernel).

Kind regards, Sven
