Intel Wireless WiFi Link, Wireless-N, Advanced-N, Ultimate-N devices
This page describes how to enable support for Intel 802.11n devices on Debian systems.
Contents
The iwlwifi module (iwlagn prior to Linux 3.2) is produced by the iwlwifi Linux kernel driver, which supports several Intel wireless LAN adapters:
Intel Wireless WiFi 4965AGN
In Debian 7.0 "Wheezy", this device is now supported by the iwlegacy driver (iwl4965 module).
Intel Wireless WiFi 5100AGN, 5300AGN, 5350AGN
Intel Wireless WiFi 5150AGN
Intel WiFi Link 1000BGN
Intel 6000 Series WiFi Adapters (6200AGN and 6300AGN)
Intel Wireless WiFi Link 6250AGN Adapter
Intel 6005 Series WiFi Adapters
Intel 6030 Series WiFi Adapters
Intel Wireless WiFi Link 6150BGN 2 Adapter
Intel 100 Series WiFi Adapters (100BGN and 130BGN)
Intel 2000 Series WiFi Adapters
Non-free firmware is required, which can be provided by installing the firmware-iwlwifi package.
For support of Intel 3945ABG/BG and 4965AGN devices, see iwlegacy.
Installation
Debian 7.0 "Wheezy"
Add a "non-free" component to /etc/apt/sources.list, for example:
# Debian 7.0 "Wheezy" deb http://http.debian.net/debian/ wheezy main contrib non-free
Update the list of available packages and install the firmware-iwlwifi package:
# apt-get update && apt-get install firmware-iwlwifi
As the iwlwifi module is automatically loaded for supported devices, reinsert this module to access installed firmware:
# modprobe -r iwlwifi ; modprobe iwlwifi
Configure your wireless interface as appropriate.
Debian 6.0 "Squeeze"
Add a "non-free" component to /etc/apt/sources.list, for example:
# Debian 6.0 "Squeeze" deb http://http.debian.net/debian/ squeeze main contrib non-free
Update the list of available packages and install the firmware-iwlwifi package:
# apt-get update && apt-get install firmware-iwlwifi
As the iwlagn module is automatically loaded for supported devices, reinsert this module to access installed firmware:
# modprobe -r iwlagn ; modprobe iwlagn
Configure your wireless interface as appropriate.
Supported Devices
The page HowToIdentifyADevice/PCI explains how to identify a PCI device.
