It looks like your system is using the Broadcom proprietary wireless
driver, so this could be due to bug #856382.

Did you upgrade from version 4.9.10-1?  Do you see "disagrees about
version of symbol module_layout" in the kernel log?

If so, you should be able to recover by running:

    apt install --reinstall broadcom-sta-dkms
