Hi Stefano
one observation according to your log files: node2 (interface 10.1.1.13) never gets any of its own originator messages back (rebroadcasted) from node6. Despite node2 receives OGMs from node6. I assume that node6 simply can not hear node2 (and maybe also others) and therefore node6 can not rebroadcast OGMs from node2 (which is necessary for the bidirectional link check). One reason for that might be, that the netmask and broadcast address of the (alias) interfaces batman is using on node2 and node6 are not identical. can you check that?
Another problem you have indicated is that node6 dissapears after a while from the routing table at node2. Well, actually the real problem is, that node6 should never appear at the routing table at node2. This is of course confusing but normally not a problem. Its just that during the first life-time-seconds of a batman instances links to nighboring nodes may falsely be assumed as bidirectional (even if they are unidirectional as in your case). We shall fix that someday:-)
ciao, axel

Wireless links are good, with olsrd network has no problem
