Re: Cannot Connect To WIFI
Well I was checking to see if it was attached and it says zero bytes.
So I opened it on the Debian side and it is empty there too.

Well let's see if I can send an attachment, if not, I can paste the contents
of the file into a message.
So let's see so far,
I reinstalled from a DVD ISO image I put on a USB drive, and it went well
like before.
Only now, it looks on the USB drive for things I install with apt.
So I installed sudo.
I installed network-manager.
I still don't have WIFI, but I ran tee and its log file is attached.
My device is listed as wlp1s0
I put a wpa_supplicant.conf file in /etc/wpa_supplicant, and ran
wpa_supplicant with the switches for the .conf file and for wlp1s0

As root first run man tee and see if tee is on your system.
If it is, as root try:
dhclient -v | tee dhclient.log
You may get a connection or maybe not.
Either way what dhclient tries to do will be in dhclient.log and that
attached to a message will be informative and maybe informative enough for
some on the list to help you.
I'm not as good as I ought to be with network stuff, first year of a
college major starting up is a bad time to major in that study area since
we had no qualified instructors to teach networking and hardware concepts
and the whole class was given credits for those even though none of us got
to study those subjects.
