My sincere apologies!
I have gone through the whole setup once again today and now gate0 stays up
and running on all client nodes, it was my iptables setup on middle client
node that was forwarding nat-ted traffic onto ath1 instead of gate0. Sorry
again. Now everything seems stable and nice. I am getting between
600-800KB/s TCP from gateway with 3 nodes which, I presume, is a nice
figure, unless -exp offers something more?
I have gone by the advice and put all radios onto the same subnet. Now
traceroute from one node onto another takes ages to do (with single-radio
setup it was nice and showed me exactly what I was expecting) - I guess it
has something to do with two interfaces with the same mask etc etc? Also
doesn't this set-up hurt performance if the linux kernel sends packets with
the same broadcast address down the first interface it finds, even though
that interface might be the radio with worse connectivity than the second
one? How should we handle this?

P.S. who do I complain to about vis not showing ALL my interfaces
(dual-radio units) as distinct IP addresses and their connections to others
but instead just takes the first interface on the subnet so instead of
having 6 nodes on my diagram I only have 3 and each one has a host-hna
attached to it (I'd rather not burden this list with mime attachments)?
