wifi card with beaglebone black on ubuntu is working good. But on next
boot after an abnormal shutdown I can not connect to wifi. I have to run
iwconfig and find out wlan interface and update the
/etc/network/interfaces with appropriate wlan interface - mostly wlan0
becomes wlan1 becomes wlan2 .... -. Here is my iwconfig

$ iwconfig
wlan3     IEEE 802.11bg  ESSID:off/any  
          Mode:Managed  Access Point: Not-Associated   Tx-Power=0 dBm   
          Retry  long limit:7   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
          Power Management:on
          
ppp0      no wireless extensions.

lo        no wireless extensions.

eth0      no wireless extensions.

usb0      no wireless extensions.

In the above on next abnormal shutdown wlan3 becomes wlan4.
