Fresh install missing WiFi drivers

Hey all, I'm a bit new to this so I'm terribly sorry if these questions are a bit basic. I am not able to get a wired connection to my Desktop and am trying to get the WiFi drivers working. According to inxi my Wi-Fi device is in the current status: Device-1: Intel Wi-Fi 5 Wireless-AC 9x6x [Thunder Peak] driver: N/A After some googling, I found the official driver files for this adapter (I assume...) from Intel and transferred them to my desktop through USB. Sadly, /lib/firmware is immutable so I can't drop the ucode file to see if it works. Would anyone have any idea what steps I can take next?
