[Bug 1589401] Re: cannot view wifi networks after re-enabling wifi

[James Bowery]

After I gave up and shifted to a wired connection, I noticed that I'd get
disconnected periodically but then it would reconnect successfully.  It
seems some drivers manage to reconnect and other drivers don't.

So there may be _two_ bugs:

1) A bug that results in occasional loss of connection.
2) A bug in one or more drivers that disables automatic reconnection.
