Appears the only difficulty was a 9 deb file in the 10 system.

According to packages.debian.org/buster/all/net, iw is not available in the suite. Are instructions available to make WiFi work using the console in Debian 10? If not can someone please mention the required *.deb files. Thx, ... P.

That website appears a little broken, 'iw' is available in Buster, I have it installed and it's listed at https://packages.debian.org/buster/iw -- Tixy

In Debian 10, open Firefox and open http://www.google.ca/. If you are not in CA (Canada; not California), there's a good chance the browser will be redirected to the google address for another country; google.us for example. If that prevents you from reproducing the search you might resort to some proxy method. That's beyond my knowledge. Search for this string. site:packages.debian.org buster iw In the returned list, click on the first link. WIth a little luck, this URL will appear. https://packages.debian.org/buster/net TTFN, ...

It matters only if you got it from some other Debian resource (web page, wiki, etc.) as it would need to be fixed. Kind regards, Andrei -- http://wiki.debian.org/FAQsFromDebianUser
