My guess is that it's a problem in the driver (i.e. in the kernel)
rather than a problem higher-up in the stack.  IOW there's not much
Debian can do about it.

You can find the name of your device driver with something like:

    ls -l /sys/class/net/wlan0/device/driver/module

[ Replace `wlan0` with the actual name of your wireless device as it
  appears in `ifconfig` and friends.  ]
