The steps taken were as follows (same as on http://www.rescuerobot.org/drupal/?q=content/beaglebone-black-wireless).
Made an SD Card from bone-debian-8.6-lxqt-4gb-armhf-2017-01-10-4gb.img.xz.
Booted BBBW from card.
From a Windows 10 PC using TeraTERM connected on 192.168.8.1
Changed timezone.
Completed Wireless configuration using connmanctl:

Edited the /boot/uEnv.txt file.
Removed the “#” from “dtb=am335x-boneblack-emmc-overlay.dtb”
New line added: “cape_enable=bone_capemgr.enable_partno=BB-UART1,BB-I2C1”
Rebooted the BBBW.
ran ifconfig -a
No wlan0 or SoftAp0. Replaced by eth0.
If I try to shutdown the BBBW immediately reboots.
Is there a possible repair or should I make a new SD Card?
Regards,
Kevin.

Edited the /boot/uEnv.txt file.
Removed the "#" from "dtb=am335x-boneblack-emmc-overlay.dtb"
Yeah, i don't have things ready for the BBBW for people to do that
"today"... (i need to make an overlay for the wl1835, and users will
have to use the new U-Boot overlays to make it work)
New line added: "cape_enable=bone_capemgr.enable_partno=BB-UART1,BB-I2C1"
Rebooted the BBBW.
ran ifconfig -a

This is one of side affects of having eth0, when there really isn't one..
Is there a possible repair or should I make a new SD Card?
