Any suggestions would be most welcome

iwlwifi-firmware-iwl7265d package installed ?

it is now - where did you get the package name?
restarted and configuration is progressing as expected

I actually searched the package index, since I didn't have access to an openwrt device - I'm sitting on a ferry :wink:

But looking for the string firmware in the software tab should probably have been enough.

I appreciate the help, I was trying via the shell.

almost done
