Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
   I recently did a fresh upgrade from Debian 9 Stable to Debian 10 Stable. On Debian 9, my usb wifi (D-Link System DWA-140 RangeBooster N Adapter(rev.B1) [Ralink RT2870]) worked fine after installing firmware-misc-nonfree. However, on Debian 10 it can no longer make a connection to my wifi router. The system log reports that authentication and associated are successful, but the connection attempt times out report 'ip-config-unavailable'.
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
     Package firmware-misc-nonfree was installed.
     
     I amended /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf to add the lines:

     [device]
     scan-rand-mac-address=no

   * What was the outcome of this action?
   The above actions did not solve the problem - the same error message occurred.
   * What outcome did you expect instead?

Hi,

thanks for filing this report.

However, at this time it looks more like a support request, and the
bug tracker - especially the "general" package - is not well-suited
for this.

Please try getting help from other venues listed at
   https://www.debian.org/support - especially IRC,
the mailing lists or http://forums.debian.net/ .

Once there is a clear bug identified, please file a new report
against the package having the bug.

Thank you for your understanding,
Chris
