I do not mind that it is a useful suggestion in general and should be
followed, but I am curious if it has ever helped you in specific cases
of intel wifi cards.
My bad. I was talking about the manufacturer's UEFI firmware; not a
linux-firmware package.
I am not trying to dispute your suggestion, I had a hope to get a data
point with a success story.
To be precise concerning packages, it is firmware-iwlwifi
(src:firmware-nonfree). Even unstable currently have a year old package,
so for experiments it is better to take files from an upstream git
repository. It requires kernel upgrade since the range of supported
firmware versions is hardcoded.
