I encountered the same issue with jessie.
I contacted a maintainer about the wireless connection of the installer and
his reply was :
This is a known bug.
Thanks for mailing anyway...
I connected my laptop (old acer) with ethernet and the installer worked
fine except that the laptop didn't boot fine : grub said : error, file not found.
I reinstalled grub with a liveCD and now jessie works (fine ...) and the
wireless too. (not with the installer !)
