Description

XO-1 mesh networking is broken in 12.1.0 os9.

The Mesh network connects and assigns itself an IP address on "Channel 0" but two XO-1's on this channel do not talk to each other.

Attempting to manually select a Mesh network channel in the Neighborhood view fails.

Mesh networking support is present in 12.1.0 os12.

Upon resuming a XO-1 from lid close/power-off suspend we start rescanning networks again (including mesh channels) to find one to join. I do not know if this desired for mesh XO-1s which are relaying.

I also do not know how I could check if mesh networking is active and relaying while the XO is suspended.
