I’m trying to keep things simple, to get a base system stable first, before adding more complexity, so I just have a ovms server v2, a wifi scanning client (connecting to any available access point), and a simcom modem running. That seems stable for the past two days for me.

I'm not running a wifi client at all, and I'm fairly sure I have 
everything else turned off, I'm only using the leaf, simcom and server v2.

I'm running it now, I'll let you know how it goes. I have a reproducible 
testcase: when using the spark m2m service, the ovms never reconnects if 
I disable and re-activate the simcard. This doesn't freeze the whole 
system when I power off the simcom so it may be we have two bugs. I 
don't have the right simcards here so I'll try it on Monday.
