Hi Brian,

I've checked it out and can confirm your issues. The bonding code as currently 
implemented is trying to use a different router from each routing table towards 
the same originator[1]. However, with 1-hop Ethernet links those routers are 
always the same in all the routing tables. With WiFi that would be a bit 
different (I've commented out the WiFi penalty check), but even then it only 
alternates between two of the three interfaces.

At this point I don't have a straight forward fix for this. Will you use three 
Ethernet devices in your later deployment, or will those be WiFi interfaces? 
Also, would it be useful for you to consider bonding/teams interfaces of the 
Linux kernel to bond the link, and give that to batman-adv?

Cheers,
       Simon
