hi
ensure you have wireless (wlan) set up in your bios first 2) I suspect you may need firmware for just your wireless can you show the snippet for Code:
lspci -vvv Code:
lsmod http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/Atheros but I don't have your hardware 3) can't you get a more recent kernel? 4) in debian the way to get firmare is something like https://wiki.debian.org/Firmware good luck |
