Kernel request 4.4.7 i686

[Manuel]

Hi List and Paul,

Here some news from my roomate's laptop.

We installed successfully Debian base system with basic X11 (Dvd1
mutliarch 8.4 with sources).

Now we struggle with wlan.

Here are some questions:

1. Why does the device does not show up with the 4.6 kernel ? Is there
more info available ?

2. Could Paul supply a 4.4.7 kernel in i686 format, only a x64 kernel is
on the ftp server, to get wlan working? What does not work with that
4.4.7 kernel ?

3. We tried other wifi dongles like Edimax and Atheros but non of them
work... Any ideas ?

Thanks for now :-)

If you need more info how we installed it this far i can write up a
quick guide...
