Around 23 hours have elapsed.

WiFi seems to be working 100% of time. It is always at least lightly loaded.

Speedtests seems to gve slightly better upload results than I remember with
2.6.* (and I have a good enough ISP for WiFi to be the weakest link), so it
doesn't seem to be a performance regression, either.

As for roaming while connected - I will try not to forget to test it on the
10th.
