Firmware for Thinkpad T410s wifi?

#1 Post by jtm52 »

I installed Debian10 on old Lenovo Thinkpad T410S. Everything else works fine, but I cannot find firmware for wifi Mini-PCI Express WiFi Adapter: Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6200.

Thinkwiki tells that T410S uses one of these:
Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6200
Intel Centrino Advanced-N + WiMAX 6250
Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300
ThinkPad 11b/g/n Wireless LAN Mini-PCI Express Adapter II

Can anyone help me to find the correct firmware? Or atleast tell which of these works?

Have you rebooted so it will be recognised?

Many times rebooted, yes. If the problem was that easy, I had no need to ask help here.
Have anyone had the very same problem and solution?

You give too little info.

In addition to above, please post the log output from the last boot. Any errors?

Code: Select all

# journalctl -b |grep error
and check for useful firmware output

Code: Select all

# dmesg |grep firmware
Then post the results here.
