Intel made an 8265NGW. I suspect you have a typo. >From a terminal: lspci | NGW This is to make sure your computer sees the card. It should give one line of output similar to: 29:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Dual Band Wireless-AC 8265NGW [Windstorm Peak] If you don't get something close to that, it is not properly installed. Next is to install firmware. You need the non-free repository enabled. Edit /etc/apt/sources.list to make sure that this line has non-free at the end of it: deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye main contrib non-free Then sudo apt update sudo apt install firmware-iwlwifi You may need to reboot after this. ip link will show you the new wifi card. -dsr-
