I have resolved this issue by downloading the corresponding system version of the network card driver and installing the network card. Here are the reference steps:

1.Download the network card driver:
wget https://mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/debian-nonfree/firmware/bookworm/12.2.0/firmware.tar.gz

  1. Extract the files:
    mkdir firmware && tar -zxvf firmware.tar.gz -C ./firmware

  2. Install the driver:
    cd firmare && sudo dpkg -i firmware-atheros_20230210-5_all.deb

Please note that the versions mentioned above may vary. Please install according to your own version.
