I've installed debian 9.7 recently and during installation i got this error:




DHCP autoconfiguration failed




I continued the installation and as it finished the wireless doesn't work.

I've tried several ways but no results.



kernel version: 4.9.0-8-amd64 , Laptop: Lenovo z51-70



and this is the output of lspci -knn | grep Net -A3:



03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation Wireless 3160 [8086:08b4] (rev 93) 
subsystem: Intel Corporation Dual Band Wireless AC 3160 [8086:8270]
Kernel modules: iwlwifi

    It is a Z51-70. The question is also lacking technical details, debugging and time effort. Please include the model/generation/year of that particular Z51-70.

You need to install the firmware-iwlwifi following the instructions described on the official documentation:




Add a "non-free" component to /etc/apt/sources.list, for example:



deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian/ stretch 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
