No WIFI in Debian

I tried to install Debian to be able to use with OMV, but I can’t get the WIFI to work.I assume the usual drivers work perfectly on the latest version of Ubuntu.I copied the files to the / usr / lib / firmware folder both by myself, that creating the folder brcm, but on reboot it does not go. Am I wrong?

what’s the output of

sudo dmesg | grep brcm

sudo] password for max:
[ 13.316364] bluetooth hci0: firmware: failed to load brcm/BCM4345C0.hcd (-2)

Error -2 means ‘file not found’.
The correct folder to place the files: /usr/lib/firmware/brcm

It doesn’t work

The path should be

/lib/firmware/brcm/

The destination is the usual. With / usr or directly in libs it is the usual folder. The problem was the name. I had to rename the file to brcmfmac43455-sdio.bin. Now it works

same issue here on Ubuntu 21.04…
the renaming didn’t work for me

here’s my dmesg ouput:

Any suggestions?

With Ubuntu you just need to rename the file brcmfmac43455-sdio.ROCK Pi-ROCK Pi X.txt to brcmfmac43455-sdio.txt
