I can't do anything more on debian until problem with espeak
accessibility gets fixed. I've already sent that report to
debian-accessibility list not running debian to do it either. Lots of
missing command line network documentation too. I was making some
progress using iwconfig and may be close except for an unassociated
access point. So when I run iwlist wlx00c0ca364bd2 scanning >iwlist.txt
and the iwlist.txt has a line near the top that says address: and then
shows a hex address, is that my access point?

I tried manual network configuration and debian renamed wlan0 to
wlx00c0ca364bd2 for some reason. If I do ip a that shows up as possible wifi
connection. Unfortunately ifup doesn't recognize that device name.
Before this, I tried configuration with gnome and had a failure doing that
too. That failure is being investigated on the debian-accessibility list
since I use orca when in graphical user environment. I'm going to check out
my fedora instance since that one works and when it did come up a component
broke and got reported. I may have some clues in those files.

When I used wpa_passphrase I put about 5 lines into
/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf which wasn't the original from the
documentation but a new file. The first line said network= and that was
all. For a wifi connection, what should go in that network= field?

The entries I use look like this:
network={
ssid="The_ssid_I_want_to_use"
psk="My_passphase_for_this_ssid"
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
There is no closing bracket.
