Hello -- New post as @yahoo spam cluttered up previous.
Per RC Nelson suggestion of booting from different image obtainable at http://beagleboard.org/latest-images, I made three attempts at resolving lack of wifi on a new BBBWL. Three images used in these tests: 1. Debian 8.6 2016-11-06 4GB SD LXQT https://debian.beagleboard.org/images/bone-debian-8.6-lxqt-4gb-armhf-2016-11-06-4gb.img.xz 2. Debian 8.6 2016-12-09 4GB SD IoT https://debian.beagleboard.org/images/bone-debian-8.6-iot-armhf-2016-12-09-4gb.img.xz NOTE: This image drops my shell connxn after a couple minutes. 3. BBBW-blank-debian-8.6-lxqt-4gb-armhf-2016-12-05-4gb.img.xz, alluded to by RC Nelson in response to post "Setup Wifi on Beaglebone Black Wireless" this sub-forum. Below terminal output is consistent across all three images listed above: If anyone has an idea what I am doing incorrectly, assistance will be very much appreciated.
