I would like to hear how you do with addition of a wifi USB dongle. You have happened to pick one of the hardest items to get working in Linux. Seems most of the wifi cards are proprietary in nature so you can't get the firmware to make them operate. You need to look at the newest and see if they are on the Debian list of supported devices. I have one of them that is a PCI card that is supported, if you like I'll dig up the number from TP-Link. But it's not a USB it's a PCI. I can't think if I have a USB one around or not, seems like I could never get the firmware to operate it properly. So that why I'm interested in if you make it operate properly and completely. It was my first problem with Linux and is still around even though I've learned to look up what they support or not, but I don't know how to really do it for the smaller embedded CPU's. Will be listening.
