and reboot, wifi failed. Wifi module is intel 8265. lshw failed to recognize
the wifi module. However bluetooth(bundled with the wifi) worked well.
*Unplugged and pluged wifi module again - didn't work
*update wifi firmware to firmware-iwlwifi_20190114-1_all.deb - didn't work
*update this firmware to firmware-intel-sound_20190114-1_all.deb - OK wifi
works again. However, I don't know why. This is FYI in case other users face
the same issue.
Thanx
