How to connect with wifi ?

[jl_678]

Hi,

I am seeing the same issue on a fresh install of your debian build.  I previously installed Longsleep's Ubuntu build and the wifi worked perfectly and so I think that it has something to do with this image.

We appear to be getting an IP from DHCP.  The name of the interface is "rename4" which also seems odd to me.  Below is the output from uname -a, ifconfig, iwconfig, interfaces and for the heck of it, wpa-supplicant.conf.  Note that I modified both interfaces and wpa-supplicant.conf using settings that worked in the Ubuntu build.

uname -a
