The new SHR-U has that for you. :-)

Yes, I noticed. Very well done, by the way. :)

My experience is that GPRS has been stable for a long time, and WIFI
is fine _if_ the phone don't suspend. So keep it on, either by
plugging in power, or by turning suspend off in shr-settings.

There is one annoying problem if several of GPRS/USB/WIFI
is used - the last one to be used changes /etc/resolv.conf,
and if that connection quits then the remaining ones
may fail to look up names. Can be fixed by restarting
the remaining connection.

Hmm...  didn't run into that issue, but I believe you. :)
I don't let it suspend when on GPRS.
But it still stops working after a little while.

I never tried that - but make sure the thing doesn't suspend.

The problem happens somewhere between the wget application and the kernel stack. It shows up with larger files being downloaded. Not too large, a few dozen kB is enough. When I see it happening, I repeat the wget download that opkg was trying to do, and I can see that wget is actually in "stalled" state after the first kB. If I retry the download with the "continue" option, it eventually downloads the whole file, retry after retry, chunk by chunk. This only happens with GPRS, so I assume it is related to kernel or pppd or around this...
