Re: How to trobleshooting wifi connection with usb adapter



Hi Bw and Brian,

Thanks for your tips.

Sometimes we get confused in the middle of so much and scattered information.

And some guidelines help us to find ways to build an structured understanding.

Thank you,

Markos

Hi,

Please, could someone suggest a, step by step, tutorial for me to find 
out why my the TPLink TL-WN722N usb wifi adapter is recognized by the 
system but does not connect to a network?

I installed the firmware firmware-ath9k-htc.

I had already tried using this adapter on Debian 9 but gave up.

So I installed Debian 10 but I am having the same problem again.

Thank you,

Markos
Here are thee steps I take with tricky device:
*) Identify the device by VID, search web.
 https://wiki.debian.org/HowToIdentifyADevice/USB
*) Install firmware, confirm loading (dmesg) and device has IFACE(ip a).
 https://wiki.debian.org/WiFi
*) use ifupdown
 https://wiki.debian.org/WiFi/HowToUse#Command_Line
*) increase verbosity with ifup and/or wpa_suplicant

Good Luck,
bw
