After searching and trying all kind of things found on Internet I decided to ask a question.
First of all I want to say that I've instaled the following backport-iwlwifi and firmware because the wireless adapter was unclaimed. The wlp1s0 is now no longer unclaimed. Ethernet Internet connection works fine.
https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/iwlwifi/core_release#components
Although now I can see the interface using ifconfig I can't detect any wireless Network on my wicd network manager.
I will put below different outputs from commands that may help you understand what the problem is.
The first interface was Unclaimed at first. It is strange to me to be described as an Ethernet interface. sudo lshw -C network
sudo dmesg | grep wlp1s0
sudo iwconfig
