Comment(by carrano):

 We are trying to build a taxonomy for this bug. So, I ask anyone who sees
 it to report:

 - If the machine has been ECO'd or not (check under the battery - if you
 don't know probably the unit has been not ECO'd, in doubt send the serial
 number)
 - The model (B4, C1, etc)
 - The firmware version (check with 'ethtool -i eth0')
 - The build (619, 625, joyride-154, etc)
 - An Id for the machine (unique name or serial number)

 Also, please report the (GOOD or BAD) results of the following tests:
 - iwpriv msh0 fwt_time (will return a number if "GOOD" and Bad Adress if
 "BAD")
 - iwlist scan (will return a list of available bssid cells and APs if
 "GOOD" or won't find anything if it's "BAD") Note: try this command at
 least three times (it's "normal" that it won't work all the times)
 - try to use a USB stick (GOOD if you can use it, BAD if it's not
 reconized)
