It appears that openwrt currently doesn't support WPA-NONE at all driver-wise, at least this bug report suggests it (don't know if its a problem in wpa_supplicant, madwifi, or any other driver): https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/9190 You can try running WPA-NONE, set some IPs and let the nodes ping each other. If this works, batman-adv should[tm] work too. Cheers, Simon
