As for testing, I don't see any benefit in updating (yet, gotta buy one more Kindle first) and to speed things up I'd suggest using Tailscale together with @Hubris, it has a feature called "subnet routers" that will help you get direct access to the Kindle with HF firmware. @Hubris will have to configure Tailscale on their PC to route their local subnet to Tailscale, enable SSH over Wi-Fi and add your PC as a second team member. Once done, you'll be able to just ssh root@192.168.1.123 to their Kindle from your device and do the testing.
Can't say I had heard about Tailscale, but I have Strongswan installed on my Linux laptop. Can I set up a connection using that? I do see a Tailscale package in my distro repository, specifically:

Code:
Minimal library implementing parts of the Tailscale client API

This is a stripped down version of the tailscale.com/client/tailscale Go
package but with minimal dependencies and supporting older versions of Go.
Would that be sufficient for such use?
