The Wi-Fi card on my wife's XPS 13 failed a while back - the behavior
was intermittent dropped connections, poor throughput, etc.  I did
some googling and found multiple reports about a specific wifi card
used in some XPS 13s that was known to get flakey after a while -
sorry, but I don't remember specifics as to the card.

I replaced the wifi card with a new one - an Intel Corporation
Wireless-AC 9260.  No problems since.
