Hello! I have trouble in installing driver of my wifi card..
(My computer is DELL Inpiron 14 5000 Series, the Os is debian 3.16.2. The
wifi card should be Intel AC 3160..I think)
I can't see my wifi card by using lspci ,
it just shows 02:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Device 08b3 (rev
83)
And iwconfig shows:
eth0 no wireless extensions.
lono wireless extensions.
I download the driver iwlwifi-3160-8.ucode, and cp it into /lib/firmware.
However, I think it doesn't work
I have checked the hotplug, it was chosen in kernel-config. What's more ,
my USB can be recognized easily.
Any suggestion?
You could 'apt-get install firmware-iwlwifi' if you have non-free
enabled in sources.list. That has always worked for me. I've never
tried the manual firmware download like you did, so I'm not sure if
you've done something wrong there or not.
