Hello Bjoern,

I'm at main-n280036-92255335d945 (2025-09-03) and it seems that I've got
iwlwifi completely stable!
[ iwlwifi0: Detected Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX201 160MHz ]

I've always get better stability with iwx driver because after some time of
use, iwlwifi started to complain about beacons and stuff, and connection
becames really slow.

Now I'm watching logs carefull and doing iperf3 benchmarks directly to my
OpenWRT router and also doing some speedtest-go to my ISP.
So far, nothing in logs and connection fully stable.

=> iperf3 (-R -n 1G)
