Re: [Trisquel-users] Wireless interface changes on occasion from wlan0 to wlan1 and back

[tempaccount325]

I do not know if there are other reasons for a wireless interface being named  
any thing else than wlan0 other than unless you have multiple NICs (USB  
dongles get the same name pattern from what I recall - wlanX for wireless and  
ethX for ethernet) or you associated multiple names with the same interface  
on networkmanager, wicd or whatever GUI tool you are using (since you did not  
specify).

As for the driver, I believe it is pretty obvious if Debian includes it in  
the non-free repository; as those that are not proprietary or otherwise go  
elsewhere.
