The wmaster0 seems to be a bad guess,
as it was not resident during the successful CONNECT
That is why the sequence:
=========
ifdown wlan0
ifconfig wlan0 down
which cleared the ifconfig blocks except lo . Unloaded
modprobe -r Driver

Then restart:
modprobe Next_Driver
because the auto setup was wrong for reasons obscure
ifdown wlan0
ifconfig wlan0 down
ifup wlan0
===========
is desirable.

Incidental do:
$ lsmod | grep rt
to see the zoo of supporting dependent drivers.
