after rebooting found wlan1 ( wireless g network adapter) had disappeared on outputs of iwconfig and iwlist scan commands. however, wlan0 ( built in wifi) show ( though down). reference card appear in output lspci -vnn on running sudo lshw -c network listed under *-network unclaimed.

have manually assign card wlan1 using iwconfig ? initial finds on google suggest drivers not installed. vary of uninstalling packages downloaded , installed via "darth banes" method , not want re-install entire system again.
