Select wlan0 as network > interface (Qualcomm Atheros AR8162 (ath_9k module ?)) and connect to your WPA- > secured wlan / wifi network. Looking at the following page I'm not sure there's a need for a firmware for this particular wireless chipset: https://wiki.debian.org/alx Anyway, it would be nice to check "dmesg|grep -i firmware" to find out whether the kernel complains about missing firmwares. We currently have no way of reporting missing firmware (known regression in jessie compared to wheezy, I'll try to work on that between Beta 1 and Beta 2). Extracting the whole kernel log from the installer context would be nice in all cases. Mraw, KiBi.
