Okay so just an update - I attempted an installation using
13.1-RELEASE where I did not change the regdomain of the Wifi card
when prompted by the installer. The installation completes
successfully, so it seems the issue is around changing the regdomain -
which I am guessing causes some sort of up/down/up issue similar to
that reported by others.

Kind regards. Adam.
