If it is not yet enabled, edit file /etc/apt/sources.list and edit the lines to look similar like "deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye main non-free contrib" Then run "apt update". Then install the needed firmware package. Of course the difficulty is to find out which package you need. A search for realtek-0179 brings no usefull results on Google. It is strange that neither lsusb nor lspci bring up usefull information. If it is an USB device, unplug and plug it in again and watch the output of dmesg for messages. If it tells you firmware file "ExampleFileName" is missing then issue command "apt-file search ExampleFileName". It should tell you, which package to install. Regards, Christian
