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

Mark, is this a pre-production BeagleBone Black Wireless?
(is the pcb green or black?)
First let's double check the wl1835 works, then i'll walk you thru
re-programing the eeprom..

Much better. I get WL/BT leds fully lit, which I neglected to mention were
previously unresponsive. But USR0 led is kind of in tachycardia. OK, heart
rate is down now.
Added your line below line for 1835 which was commented out...

Hi Robert --
So yes, success. Although I will still beg your advice on the eeprom
problem. I have found that booting from SD card causes some problem with
dropping my shell connxn, something not encountered if I just flash the
onboard eMMC. I wonder if this is going to be a problem down the roa
Hello,
I am having a problem with getting the USB Ethernet bridge working with the
suggestion 12-05-2016 image. When I connect the BBBWL I get the windows
partion to show up, which usually means the virutal ethernet port is
loaded. Which it does load, but it doesn't get a 192.168.7.1 address,
Hello Gregg --
Sorry to hear you are having problems with your new board.
What do you get when you type 192.168.7.2 into your web browser? These
boards prefer Chrome.
Are you booting from the SD card, or flashing the eMMC and booting from

Mark,
Thank you. However, I just found at solution. I was trying to SSH into the
192.168.7.2 address which wouldn't work because the virutal adapter didn't
have an address on the same subnet. However, after reading some other
threads I switched to the 12-12-2016 image and everything seems to be
