Is a wireless interface listed by the iwconfig command (in a terminal window)? That would mean a driver is loaded but not working or unconfigured. > I guess no wifi driver. Based on this page that seems likely because it claims that Apple Macbooks have used Broadcom WiFi chipsets since 2008, and those drivers aren't included in Debian by defaut because they're classed as "non-free": https://wiki.debian.org/MacBook/Wireless The page was last modified in 2013 though, so you should run lspci in a terminal and see what model the WiFi chipset is in the list it shows. -- __ __ #_ < |\| |< _#
