With 2.6.32-26-generic, the device fell over after about an hour, with
Jan 15 00:25:14 ubuntu kernel: [279647.500012] No probe response from AP <redacted> after 500ms, disconnecting.
The signal strength was pretty good, -38db, link quality 70/70.
With the test kernel, the device has been solidly up for nearly 24h. Signal strength similar, -38db +/- a few db, quality 65/70.
I tested this device:

Looks like this fixes it for me.
