The iwlwifi page from Debian gave me a couple of command line instructions to run. Now that you hopefully found the right package, it just needs to be installed. Note: You will need to search for your network controller and pray to your favorite deity that Debian has a package that will enable wifi for you I did a quick internet search for "intel wireless 7265 debian 11" and found this link. I was able to see that I have the Wireless 7265 network controller from Intel. Open the HTML file and look for an entry with a description of "network controller" or something similar. This will pipe out the results in to a nice html file for you. Once you have lshw installed, you can run sudo lshw -html > lshw.html. If you do not have 'lshw' installed you can easily install it by running sudo apt install lswh. I accomplished this by using the lshw command. You'll need to know which wifi adapter you have in order to know which package to install to use it. I'm not sure which of these sources is the one that gave me access to the package I needed to get my wifi up and running, but am pretty sure it's the non-free You can learn more about the SourcesList here. Notice that I've added the non-free and contrib repo sources.
