I deleted the wifi port accidentally from my mac. How can I reconfigure it?
While removing a wifi network, I accidentally deleted the wifi port itself from my macbook air. How can I reconfigure the same?

If you have Airport Express or Airport Extreme, you can go to Airport Utility in Applications, Utilities and click on the base station, then Edit, then Network. You may be able to do it there.
In the Network preference pane, click the plus-sign button below the service list on the left. The rest should be obvious.
I have the same problem - [my daughter was having wireless problem so deliberately deleted the service] - however, when looking to add it back, it isn't there - the options are thunderbolt / bluetooth / vpn /ppoe/ 6 to 4 ... but not "wi-fi". So not as obvious as I'd hoped. Any suggestions very welcome. [OS 10.10.3]
Addition: I deleted the /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.airport.preferences.plist file and rebooted. No luck. The recreated .plist file is almost empty, like the hardware isn't being detected.
Resetting the NVRAM did the trick, "Wi-Fi" reappeared on the service list, and when added, all worked.
Hi there! I have exactly the same issue... don't know what to do.. Have you fixed your wireless problem? If so please let me know!
thank you.
