Greetings, I have a problem with the Wi-Fi network. It keeps loading but doesn't show the connection. I don't know what it is.

I'm curious what the output of these 2 commands bring forth.

cat /etc/os-release

sudo fdisk -l

Heh. Yeah, me too; especially the first one...


Mike.

Yes, is an Intel corporation Alder. But it didn't fix the error.

The intel wifi driver is usually in the kernel. The wifi firmware also needs to be installed, preferably, the latest firmware.

The following steps are usually advised.

The presence of the driver can be checked with:

find /usr/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/intel/ -name '*' | grep iwlwifi.ko

Install the latest firmware by installing or upgrading the linux-firmware package which includes the relevant firmware.

Ensure nothing is blocked by checking the output of rfkill as sudo or root. If blocked, one can unblock with:

rfkill unblock wifi
rfkill unblock all

Looks like rfkill is installed shown in post #12.

When all the above checks out, it's useful to reboot and check the wifi connection then.

To confirm what @osprey said, I checked on my system that uses the wifi Intel driver that is in the kernel. Here's the confirmation on that:-

alex@Debiansparky:~$

find /usr/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/intel/ -name '*' | grep iwlwifi.ko

/usr/lib/modules/6.1.0-37-amd64/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/iwlwifi.ko
