 The difference between the wired Ethernet controller and the Wireless
Network Adapter are obvious, but what is the "logical name" of the
internal wireless card, which as I read:

 https://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?t=136212

 is supported in the kernel since version 4.4?

 How can you go: "ip link set dev <logical name for wireless adapter>
up" when I don't even see what the logical name is?
