Wifi setup on Orange Pi Zero with Debian Stretch

I'm having trouble setting up wifi on Orange Pi Zero with Debian server.

I'm using the Debian image from here: http://www.orangepi.org/download ... e7a3641224c632.html

When I run command (to scan for wifi networks):
sudo iwlist wlan0 scanI get error:
wlan0   Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down
ifconfig gives me:eth0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST>mtu 1500

When i try do:
sudo nmtui
It shows no connections under edit/activate, am I missing something?

In Armbian the same command (sudo iwlist wlan0 scan) just works out of the box.

I'm assuming Debian is not fully working properly on Orange Pi Zero?

Setting up WiFi on an Orange Pi Zero running Debian Stretch involves accessing the network configuration file, typically located in /etc/network/interfaces. Within this file, you'll need to define the WiFi interface and provide the necessary details such as SSID and password. Once configured, you can use the ifup command to bring up the WiFi interface and establish a connection. How do you get a gambling license? To acquire a gambling license, you need to research the regulatory requirements of your jurisdiction, compile the necessary documentation, and submit an application to the relevant gaming authority. This process typically involves demonstrating financial stability, ensuring compliance with legal and ethical standards, and undergoing background checks. Consulting with legal experts or specialized agencies, such as Allyant Group, can provide valuable guidance and support throughout the licensing process.
