I just installed PureOS on my old computer to test it, but I've run into starting problems, that duckduckgo couldn't answer, because PureOS is relatively unknown.
Basically I'm not able to connect to my Wifi Network. (I can see it but it fails to connect after some time)



Due to the fact that PureOS is based on Debian I disabled random MAC addresses, but that did not work sadly.



I'm using the TP-Link TL-WN822N v2 as my Wifi Adapter. (I'm always having trouble getting this thing to run in new distros...)
It uses Atheros AR7010+AR9287 (I already installed the atheros firmware manually)

          It doesn't matter that PureOS is relatively unknown, but using Qualcomm Atheros firmware on a TP-Link TL-WN822N (RealTec firmware) is not the right way to proceed.



          If PureOS doesn't support your hardware you'll have to compile from source:



          sudo apt-get install git
          git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new.git
          cd rtlwifi_new
          make
          sudo checkinstall


          Readme for the driver is here



          Alternatively, use something mainstream that does support this driver out of the box.
          ( I know Ubuntu does from 16.04 onwards)

          • When running sudo make install I'm getting make Error 2 Make[1]: *** /lib/module/4.17.0-3-amd64/build: No such file or directory. Stop. Makefile:58: recipe for target 'all' failed I'm gonna buy a new Wifi Adapter now like you suggested. Thanks for your help
