Sure. sha1sum firmware-ath9k-htc-1.4.0-97-g75b3e59+dfsg-3_all.deb sha256sum firmware-ath9k-htc-1.4.0-97-g75b3e59+dfsg-3_all.deb Reco
Establishing WiFi on a freshly installed base system.
An elementary Buster was installed on a SATA drive. The target machine boots from that. The current objective is to establish a 'net connection using a TP-Link TL-WN722N USB adapter. firmware-ath9k-htc-1.4.0-97-g75b3e59+dfsg-3_all.deb was retrieved from http://mirror.it.ubc.ca/debian/pool/main/o/ dpkg -i firm* gives only this. dpkg-deb: error: 'firmware-ath9k-htc-1.4.0-97-g75b3e59+dfsg-3_all.deb' is not a debian format archive dpkg: error processing archive ... The adapter worked until the previous HDD failed. Any insights? Thx,... Peter E.
