I'm new to OpenWRT coming from m0n0 and derivates and tried to install openwrt-19.07. or openwrt-18.06. to my Zotac ZBox Pro CI329 nano.
Both installations worked as expected with the exception of using the installed wifi-modul Intel 3165 ngw.
If I try to install kmod-iwlwifi I get the following dmesg:

Same result in 18.06. or 19.07.rc2.
Are the backported links broken, do I misunderstood the reports or am I wrong in installation procedures?
Please give me a useful hint to proceed, and thanks a lot for this great freedom to use OpenWRT!
