Sounds like an rfkill issue. Check the system logs for a message
involving rfkill or the radio being off.

OK, not an rfkill issue.

Can it see any networks?

sudo ip set wlx0022c0001a95 up
sudo iw dev wlx0022c0001a95 scan | grep SSID

The firmware you need for these Realtek chips is probably in the non-free
package firmware-misc-nonfree

All the very best,

Buster install should always prompt: try doing an expert install which will
ask all questions, even those at lower priority.

All the best,

Hi Long Wind,

Please don't do this: Stretch is Debian 9, Buster is Debian 10 and Bullseye
[Debian 11] is nearly here.

Stretch is oldstable - within two months from now, it will be oldoldstable. For
security's sake, you are better running at least Buster.

If you are still having problems with firmware, use the .iso file which
includes non-free firmware or install firmware-ralink yourself.

Relying on old software is a bad idea: especially since Stretch reached end
of life for full support this time last year and will be supported as LTS
until next year - https://wiki.debian.org/DebianReleases

Thank you for the thanks, by the way. I hope this helps.

With every good wish, as always,

Andrew Cater
