Philippe...seems your problem and mine are similar hence continuing posting in
this thread,if you feel its different please tell me ill repost as a new thread.
My network setup is as shown
Gateway 10.24.249.96
-------------------------------------
|
50ft |
|
|

Node 1 (10.1.125.158)
-------------------------------------
|
25ft |

Node 2 (10.1.52.)236
-------------------------------------
The wifi signal strength between Gateway and Node 1 is good and so is between Node 1 and Node 2 .In general the average signal strength between Node 2 and gateway is bad.
But momentarily there seems to be an improvement in direct link between the Gateway and Node 2 and at this point of time the the tunnel formed from Node 2 to gateway via Node 1 is deleted and the a new direct tunnel is formed which again looses link as its average signal strength is bad.
This is what batmand -cd3 on the Node 2 shows
/ # batmand -cd3

--CUT--
The above keeps happening very frequently (at times even every 5-10 secs)
and in my case eventually the gateway crashed (which is my second problem i had posted separately yesterday).
I have noticed that while i am connected to Node 2 and am downloading or transfering data from internet the link keeps chopping up and in most cases times out....however as my wan ip is constant the downloads don't get disconnected.
