Tested with:
Attitude Adjustment r37270

Batman-adv 2013.2 (current stable release )

I have tested wpa* and it is currently not working with batman-adv. The ssid for the mesh is encrypted but batman-adv/batctl is unable to see/ping any nodes.

I tested with wpa, wpa2 and without encryption.
without encryption i was able to get the other nodes to join the mesh and have them communicate with each other.

I believe someone has once mentioned about a patch that was related to this problem and i wonder if it is already included in these software releases or not and if other people are experiencing this same problem.

Patches for making IBSS-RSN (WPA2 for ADHOC) work correctly are still pending on the hostapd/wpa_supplicant mailing list...I hope they get merged soon.

If they are not merged in the upstream hostapd, I'll try to push them to openwrt.

Also a small change to mac80211 is required (this has already been merged upstream)

Cheers,

can you elaborate about the small change to mac8021 ?

Regarding the IBSS-RSN Patches for wpa* try to push them but i am guessing that they will go to trunk or are there in chances of them going to Attitude adjustment?
I can test and inform about it.

Also if you know where i can get them i can also try to patch and try to see if they work properly.
