[B.A.T.M.A.N.] Newbe - almost have batman up and running (almost)

Hi all,

I'm trying to try-out batman with kamikaze 8.09 on some Atheros boards (Ubiquity litestation 2s).

So far almost so good.

I have both boards booted. I've setup the ath0 interfaces as Adhoc with IP addresses 5.0.0.1/8 and 5.0.0.2/8 and I can ping between them.

batmand is started on both boards and on the Internet gateway board I've run "batmand -c -g 4Mbit" and on the radio linked node board I've run "batmand -c -r 3".

Then I see some great looking messages: Found new gateway 5.255.0.1 -> class: 49 - 4MBit/1024KBit Adding default route to 5.255.0.1 (gw_flags: 49, tq: 110, gw_product: 0) Gateway client - got IP (169.254.0.1) from gateway: 5.255.0.1 Adding default route via gate0 (table 68)

I see that there is indeed a "gate0" tunnel NIC created and although I don't see a new default route if I run "ip route list table 68" I CAN see a line "default dev gate0 proto static scope link src 169.254.0.1".

Still - I don't much like the look of that 169.254.0.1 IP address ?

I am not getting actual Internet access - which is why I'm looking for help

thanks for any info!

Derek
