Comment(by carrano):

 '''Summary'''

 This firmware release fails in two modes:

 1 - It sometimes does not start the wireless interface correctly. Symptom
 is the mac address equals to ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff. It seems that this is
 #6589 manifesting in a different way. A reboot or a reload in the usb8xxx
 module will fix it (expected from our experience with #6589).

 2 - It does not display neighbors in the mesh view. Which seems related to
 the fact that avahi-browse does not return the expected data. It is
 established that the nodes are still able to send out and receive
 multicast frames.

 We also know that:

 - Firmware release 22.p8 fails in the second and not in the first.
