Cannot connect to Wi-FI on Lenovo Ideapad 110 laptop in livecd SOLVED

I have a Lenovo Ideapad 110-15ACL model 80TJ, i boot into the live cd environment, and i cant get iwctl to power on my wifi adapter. using wpa_supplicant doesn't work too.

I did install arch on this laptop before, using wpa_supplicant for wifi and it did work, but now it doesn't want to connect.

Wild guess:

# rfkill unblock all

If that doesn't help then please post the exact commands you're trying along with the full, verbatim error messages. See also https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=57855
