Hello Team,

Greetings for the day!

I need your help regarding a query about Debian 9.9

Please help me understand if Intel  Wi-Fi Module AC9260 supports Debian 9.9
?

If it is supported then is the wifi driver part of the inbox driver for
Debian 9.9 iso?

Thank you for your time,

Regards,
Pratiek N

I can't vouch for it firsthand, but at least there seems to be firmware
for it -- at least this seems promising:

  tomas@trotzki:~$ apt-file search -x "firmware.*9260"
  firmware-iwlwifi: /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-9260-th-b0-jf-b0-34.ucode
  firmware-iwlwifi: /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-9260-th-b0-jf-b0-38.ucode
  firmware-iwlwifi: /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-9260-th-b0-jf-b0-41.ucode
  firmware-iwlwifi: /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-9260-th-b0-jf-b0-46.ucode

But perhaps someone else is using that hardware right
now.

Good luck

Hello,

This is a user list, there is no Debian support team.

According to (1) AC9260 is supported by a Li,nux kernel from 4.14 on.
According to (2) Strecth has a 4.09 kernel but there is a 4.19 Backports kernel available.
According to (3) there is also a firmware for this chip in the Backports repo

By default Stretch seems too ancient to support your chip and you would need is install both the kernel and   
the firmware from Backports to support it

(1) https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000005511/network-and-i-o/wireless.html
(2) https://packages.debian.org/search?suite=all&section=all&arch=any&searchon=names&keywords=linux-image-amd64
(3) https://packages.debian.org/search?suite=all&section=all&arch=any&searchon=names&keywords=iwlwifi

If you do not know how to use Backports, there is a page in the wiki:

In any case the OP is asking also if this is on the installer, which it is
obviously not.
So th answer to actually both questions is NO.
