The reason I asked for more dmesg lines is that it likely then tried (f.e.) 
-81, then -79 and then probably succeeded at some point.
The Debian kernel (unfortunately imo) 'promoted' warning/info messages to 
errors, which make it appear more severe then they actually are.

I do think that the old package versions are a problem, so I have been working 
on Merge Requests for updating them.
Version 20230804 would make the -83 file available.
But the device using and older version should still work. If it doesn't work 
with an older version, but it does work with a newer, that's important info.

But I'm still a bit confused as this bug is about *realtek* firmware, not 
iwlwifi? Can you answer the question I asked previously?
