I think that may have been a mistake. If you install  gui with wifi , chances
are the required drivers and firmware will be present.

Once it's working, unneeded extensions can be removed.

Hi retro_bread
A little bit of Google foo and it turns out the TL-WN722N was
released with at least 2 different chip sets, Atheros and Realtek.

So  gui with wifi  would be the best choice.

CleverClogs:
Try firmware-rtlwifi.tcz
I hope this helps

Rich:
Hi CleverClogs
That would be for an earlier version.
A later version would have needed firmware-atheros.tcz.
