Comment:

 Same here on joyride 1516 using machine A05 in the testing area.

 I had just updated from ship2.2 build 656 where things were working fine.
 I used the "autoreinstallation" USB update method, and held the square
 button to do a clean install. This seems to be a joyride regression.

 Upon booting into the new joyride, wireless circle comes and goes a few
 times (tries to connect to mesh 1, looks for a school server, tries mesh
 6), and then disappears. Same every time on 4 reboots. In this state I
 obviously cannot share/join any activites or access the internet.

 If I select one of the mesh channels on the neighbourhood view, it
 connects successfully to a "simple mesh" i.e. no internet access.

 If I select the media lab 802.11 infrastructure network, it connects
 successfully and I can go online.
