As expected there are bumps along the road.. at the moment reverting to 2.1.5 is your best bet as 2.2's key issues are still being fixed and i dont see the 2.2.1 being released any time soon.

I have 2.2 in production. I was affected by one problem with IPSEC which
is due to a bug in the upstream StrongSwan (which replaced racoon)
https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/4178
2.2 has also fixed some bugs which were present in 2.1.5, so YMMV.
However, you should be aware that it is a bigger change than the minor
2.1->2.2 version number implies. The base system has changed from
FreeBSD 8 to FreeBSD 10; this implies changes to a number of subsystems
including CARP, IPSEC and DNS tools.
https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/2.2_New_Features_and_Changes
Hence if you were using 2.1.5 with a specific configuration, it's
possible that it will behave differently. If so, the most constructive
thing to do is to report the specific regression you are seeing.

Brian.
