The disconnect repeated after about an hour. No further references
to rfkill, but the boot messages grumble about NetworkManager....

bob@raspberrypi:~$ systemctl status NetworkManager-wait-online.service

It unclear to me if this is even relevant to the disconnect event, since
at the moment wifi is connected and working.

Anybody got a suggestion? apt update reports all up to date....

Thanks for reading
