Done.

Thank you two, and everyone else. Now I can send this message from Debian.
I saw the network interface number 4 [1] after installing and running
the firmware only.
Then, dmesg showed that last line that told me the "wlan0" (i.e. the
wireless device)
was instead "wlx000d81af0249".
So, I opened Wicd one more time to see if something happened, I clicked on
preferences and saw that the wireless network interface field was empty.
I wondered what would happen if I wrote wlx000d81af0249 [1] there.
So I did it and boom! It works!
I wonder why Wicd doesn't detect the wireless interface automatically.
Was it designed to be configured manually or is it a bug?
Anyway, is there some way to automate this? I saw there was that command
"ip link set <interface> up" but it doesn't make Wicd recognize the interface
automatically.
