have a desktop computer running Debian Buster Mate that I want to
move to a different location and use Wifi.
Using a cheap USB dongle NetworkManager Applet detects the device,
lets me select from available networks, accepts password, but will
not connect..and after a few moments it closes..
Thinking the drivers were not installed (user error) I tried a
fresh Net install alongside.
firmware-10.1.0-amd64-netinst.iso
I unplugged the ethernet cable was unplugged, the installer
detected the USB device, install worked as expected.
First boot, again the device is detected with NetworkManager
Applet, but same thing... will not connect and after a few moments
it closes.
I also tried Buster Mate Live.
debian-live-10.1.0-amd64-mate+nonfree.iso
D-I installer works but the result is the same as the Net
installer. device detected, but will not connect.
Running a Live session device detected, but will not connect.
Ubuntu Mate works, Linux Mint Mate works.
... I am at a loss of where to begin.

as a reality check I moved the USB Wifi dongle to another machine
