I tried configuring these interfaces using 'batctl' but it complains that they are an unsupported type. 'iwconfig' reports these interfaces as having 'no wireless extensions' which I suspect is the issue.
The batman-adv kernel module checks for interface compatibility and only if an interface is suitable the corresponding /sys/class/net/$iface/batman-adv subfolder is created. It is that folder batctl tries to find in order to enable batman-adv on the given interface.
