This is the strangest thing (for a finite state machine). But now the BBBW that worked fine Sunday now exhibits the same behavior: on first light networking devices are discovered and configured. An undetermined but short while later wlan0 does not respond; ifconfig command engenders a process that hangs and cannot be killed by kill -9. So now this has occurred on 2 new BBBW's. The first time it occurred the machine was powered through USB so quality of power source seems less likely. Best assumption now seems to be problem with the 4.9.25-ti-r32 kernel. So I'll test with older kernel for now. Would love to know if anyone else has had success with current kernel on BBBW.
