Strange: When I'm setting up the Network without Batman (setting a fixed gateway on the client) I can ping the Gateway in the WAN. As soon as I start the batmand with -g on the Mesh-Gateway the ping stops. Besides, the ping does not end up in an error-message it just doesn't answer.
It sounds like your ping is going in the right direction but there is no route back (the host that wants to send an answer has no routing information to route the packet back to its origin). Usually, you can solve that by adding routes at the other end or via NAT.
Its rather difficult to help you that way. I suggest you join our IRC channel on irc.freenode.org. You will find us in the #batman channel. There we can debug your problems interactively. :-)
