Hi Mikus:
 
Would that not come down to whether telepathy is using salult in the
case of link-local, or gabble for the "internet" school presence? Could
you do me a favor and repeat that test noting what the difference are
with the output of "olpc-netstatus", "ip route ls", "netstat -nat" and
the resolv.conf file while you have all the XOs online please? Do you
have a local schoolserver to play with also?

Thanks,

Jerry
