Just make sure to get the right patch version for your firmware, there are other threads for older firmware version in the forum.
As I understand it, the insomnia patch is useful to keep the wifi alive after it has been successfully activated, i.e. disabling the power saving timeout of several minutes.

In my case, the wifi does not really work at all - it cuts out in 15 to 20 sec after typing the password. The only sign that something is happening is that the device is pingable during that short spell.
