Jude: More details please: Which version of Debian? Which other Linuxes have you tried? Also: Which laptop / desktop hardware? Does Debian report missing hardware when you do dmesg | less or journalctl? Which desktop environment installed and, crucially, which network client? if you tried to install Bookworm - did you do so with the latest install medium and did you try expert mode? Network Manager / nmcli / nm-tui generally work to establish some sort of connection if WiFi hardware is found. Without details, everyone's pretty much in the dark here. This is probably a more appropriate question for the debian-user mailing list - follow-up st to there. All the very best, as ever, Andrew Cater (amaca...@debian.org)
