Right now r37768 still presents this problem. Once wpa/wpa2 is active for adhoc; batman-adv stops seeing the other nodes.
While i do not know if the needed patches have been merged into AA i was doing some research and found this: http://rooter.kyberian.net/tag/adhoc Is wpad-mini lacking the support it needs? Is wpad the solution ?
