I was installing Debian. But, I know that I have installed wireless connection system manually in Debian.
But, I couldn't install wireless connection while installing Debian. I had connected Ethernet although, I couldn't install it. So, I had skipped it. I downloaded iwlwifi-6000g2a-ucode-18.168.6.1.tgz
from Intel Wireless connection. I had tried to some commands also
apt-get install linux-firmware
apt-get install firmware-iwlwifi
Both had returned "unable to locate package". When I had extracted wlwifi-6000g2a-ucode-18.168.6.1.tgz
, I just found three files. I don't think that I can do something with them. So, how can I install wireless network in Debian.
I had made changes to /etc/apt/sources.list

This system was installed using small removable media
(e.g. netinst, live or single CD). The matching "deb cdrom"
entries were disabled at the end of the installation process.
For information about how to configure apt package sources,
see the sources.list(5) manual.

I don't have modprobe also.
