I can confirm the fix after applying latest firmware!

ISSUE: I was getting intermittent internet dropping (for 5 to 10 seconds) between my MAC OS and my 22.04 Ubuntu server (no lost of connection from Ubuntu or Mac to internet)

HARDWARE: Motherboard: MSI MPG X670E CARBON WIFI (mt7921e wifi)

IPV6: I noticed missing ipv6 value after 'ifconfig' command (only local ipv6 - fe80)

ENVIRONMENT (after fix): Ubuntu 22.04 (jammy)

$ uname -a
