Hi again, experts.
Please advice how fix it.
WiFi gone.
I used ethernet cable to reinstall Debian i386 32b Buster. Now WiFi won't
turn on. In Xfce desktop "Advanced Network Manager" shows the WiFi
provider, but "Save" button's grey passive; not possible to turn on.
Installed B.a.t.m.a.n another management tool; hope it helps.
BR,
Gunnar

Maybe you need to install a firmware. What is the model of your
wireless card? Use lspci or lsusb to find out, depending on how your
card is connected. Also you can use

# dmesg | grep -i firmware

to see messages related to firmware (if there are any).
