The network types must match so the OSPF timers will match and the routers
will form neighbor adjacencies.
There are different reasons why you would want to use each network type, but
the important thing is they all match, or more correctly the timers all
match.
If routers are not neighbors they will not exchange routing information,
breaking the routing process.
In your situation you could make them all point-to-multipoint, broadcast, or
non-broadcast.

Subject: ip ospf network [7:16589]
I have a frame relay network setup with all point-to-point connections on
sub-interfaces. I get the same result if I use ip ospf network
point-to-point as I do when I don't use it. What is the point (no pun
intended) of this command if it gives me the same results as without it? I
also noticed that one of the the routers in my lab has version 10.3 IOS and
the ip ospf network command doesn't let you set point-to-point, only
point-to-multipoint, non-broadcast and broadcast. How would I make a version
10.x router work with the 12.x routers that have ip ospf network
point-to-point set? (and please don't say upgrade the IOS)
