ifconfig -a
it prints :

How is it possible to install it?
Thx you

it's my ethernet connexion, when I unplug the wire and restart the RPi3, it displays that the eth0 is down, but nothing about wlan0

I switched back to using TP Link mini dongle. Had nothing but problems with internal wlan and Netgear Nighthawk router
