Why are your udev rules renaming wlan0 to that crazy string?

Your ESSID for the AP of "1.618029" is also strange, but that works OK here.

Note that I added the ML to this reply.

The ID didn't cause any issues before, neither did the strange names (courtesy
of systemd 197) and they are indeed very strange but as you have already seen
the same setup is working in 3.8.2

Here are relevant dmesg output in 3.8.2 //

so is there maybe a quick fix?

I have another idea, I should try out. Maybe I should try to disable IPv6 in my
network settings.

I see that had no effect. You need to bisect between HEAD and v3.8.
