If you plan to use mate you should use the network manager applet in mate, also the name of interfaces has been changed from wlan0 to something like wlx*.

OK I have wlx0013ef800c2c I wondered if it may be the device but didnt recognise it.  Unfortunately the HDMI isnt working with my screen so im in CLI only at the moment.

If you can boot to a GUI it should be easier to configure your wireless from there.

You will need to edit your wpa_supplicant with your router/modem settings to make a connection from the terminal.

I'm running armbian64 image and can do all that by running sudo armbian-config from an ssh session.

OK wpa_supplicant Im familiar with, thanks.
Ok looks like something is going wrong with the USB dongle, if I read it right there is an issue and its going to sleep, from dmesg:

Im falling back to Debian Jessie Minimal now, I want to keep it simple anyway, lets see if that helps.

OK after re-installing the CLI OS, its working now, if anyone has issues:

connect the wifi dongle

> sudo nano /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

network={
        ssid="your_ssid_here"
        psk="your_psk_here"
}

CTRL X, Y and Enter to save

> sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces

# interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8)
# Include files from /etc/network/interfaces.d:
source-directory /etc/network/interfaces.d

auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
        wpa-ssid your_ssid_here
        wpa-psk your_psk_here

CTRL X, Y and Enter to save

> sudo reboot
