I considered this before but there is no icon to configure the network 
setting under Debian. Somebody mentioned that I need to go through this to 
set up an internet connection for the BBB via usb connection to a PC. After 
setting up the wifi connection successfully for BBB wireless, I can then 
use it as a standalone controller that can connect to the internet via a 
PC. Eventually, I will need the BBB wireless to be able to connect to 
public wifi network. 

Besides, I don't have access to an external HDMI monitor outside home. I 
need to use the screen of my laptop as the screen for the BBB wifi when I 
am away from home.
