(solution)
works for me.
thanks alot

no

So try

# rfkill unblock all

maybe i should have let the hardware switch on during installation, i don't know; maybe i made an error.

with jessie it functions.

Did you check rfkill?

Probably never saw so many connections WIFI available on my computer at once; a bit scary.

The problem now is with Bluetooth as i am trying to access my MacMiniServer via NAP (Network Access Point - PAN)

on Gnome this function is available and functions well, albeit slow with the Bluetooth 2.1 card (surfing with around 100kb/s)

to achieve this i am trying to install all available packages as i did on gnome, but it would complain

sudo apt-get install bluez*

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
gnome-bluetooth : Depends: libpam-systemd but it is not installable
                   Recommends: gnome-control-center but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

any idea on how to overcome this=?

Thanks

i installed today a fresh Devuan Ascii on a Vintage Lenovo T400 and installed the WiFi module with firmware-iwlwifi.

However, Wireless status LED is inactive after reboot and no connections are shown.
The Bluetooth Status LED is green however, but it seems that XFCE4 has no Bluetooth packages installed and although i installed all Bluez* packages, no Bluetooth Manager is shown in the Taskbar.

The card is a iNTEL WIFI LINK 5300 and clearly functions under Debian Wheezy.
