It confirmed what we saw in the other logs: This device (the laptop?) does not see the packets from the other side, therefore the protocol correctly assumes a dead link. There might be 2 reasons: either the wifi layer does not really work or batman-adv drops the packets without any further warning. You can try the latest trunk and/or run batctl/wireshark on the laptop to deep-inspect the packets. Feel free to share the logs with us.
I got the latest trunk up and running, some changes were required to get it to crosscompile for ARM (and 2.6.24 kernel). Same behaviour as before, device log shows a lot of activity, but laptop batman doesn't seem to be doing much anything. I tried the wireshark and got a log ok (which shows a lot of multicast traffic from the device until I disabled the service) but I'm at loss to decipher possible batman packages. What should they look like in wireshark? I only noticed couple of IPX packages from device to (broadcast?) but nothing else. I attached the log file, is anyone able to say if there are batman packages included?
