Is the host in question a server?
What errors are you getting?

Thanks! jessie doesn't  run as serveri think setting /etc/network/interfaces is ok:
# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug wlan1
iface wlan1 inet dhcp
# This is an autoconfigured IPv6 interface
#iface wlx0011d8bff26f inet6 auto
wpa-ssid honor
wpa-psk  abcd1234abcd

i run "dhcp wlan1" and it output nothing
and i wait for a very long time 
and finally i have to press Ctrl+C

  can you use a more recent updated kernel (perhaps via backports)?
i'm not sure it would help or that one exists, but with a more
recent hardware item that would be what i'd try first.

He means perhaps you need more recent kernel as the standard kernel in
jessie is already very old. So by getting newer kernel, you would also get
more recent drivers
