[ns] Strange forwarding issue

[Claude Chaudet <Claude.Chaudet@free.fr>]

Hello,

I am actually trying to develop a wireless ad-hoc routing protocol.
I took the source code from AODV as a starting point and I changed
it to implement my protocol. I have strange problems when I try to
forward routing packets.

For example, If I have 3 nodes A, B and C, A can hear B, B can hear
A and C and C can hear B. When I send packets between direct neighbors,
everything is OK.
Now, when I try to send packets from A to C, B gets the packet and re-emits
it but C never hears it (I think it is dropped somewhere).

My forwarding routine does nothing more than check the ttl and pass the packet
to the scheduler to have it sent. (i.e. I change no field in headers).

Has anybody seen this kind of problem ?

Thanks.

Claude Chaudet.
