Legal issues aside, some Exe users (and contributors) have asked that it 
remain strictly GPL. I know the curse of nonfree firmware only too well, 
some machine here require it.

You can use a wired connection first and install the appropriate deb 
from there.. or place the deb on the usb and "dpkg -i" it, in a "live" 
session or post-install . It can even be done automatically as a "live 
hook" (see live-boot man page)

What's your wireless device? (hwinfo and/or TDE "control center" can 
help identify that) also see https://wiki.debian.org/WiFi
