How to connect to wifi
First enable to therface with
sudo ip link set wlan0 up
Then add this to /etc/network/interfaces
auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto wlan0 iface wlan0 inet dhcp
Then run
echo 'wpa_supplicant_args="-i wlan0 -D wext"' | sudo tee /etc/conf.d/wpa_supplicant
Then add the ssid and passphrase for the network
wpa_passphrase <SSID> | sudo tee /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
Then restart the services
sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart sudo /etc/init.d/wpa_supplicant restart
Finally check for a connection and enable dhcp
iw wlan0 link sudo udhcpc -b -i wlan0
If it worked then
ip a
Should show an ip address

Experience
The best user interface to install is XFCE4. Other ones do lag, or just don't respond. Especially KDE Plasma.
