wifi drops out

[Jonathan Engwall]

Hello Tse,
If it works a little then stops that is one thing. But if it is not
actually working at all when it should you can try a few different things.
So can you clarify: does it work for a few minutes then stop; does it say
it is working but then prove not too; or does it seem to work only until
you need more than today's headline story or the Google splash?
Why is your wifi on a NIC and a PCIE? Does this make sense? The OS is
looking for it, and it is not there. Where is it really, that is the
question I think. But this is not the only possibility.
PCIE lanes lead to NICs which are physical components, on the other hand a
MAC is an IPV6 address; IPV6 is not exactly necessary, you can turn it off.
This was not the first hint of trouble, maybe it is something else.
You may need only update ipfw3. If you can access the router, reset it.
To get a bigger picture in a terminal type: "ifconfig", "dmesg", and
"netstat -a | less" then share the results.
