Wifi problems after upgrade

Hello!

After upgrading arch (with pacman -Syu) i lost my wifi nic somewhat.
I have no clue how to proceed... I've attached a screenshot with some info i thought would help.
I use networkmanager and i checked that neither netctl or dhcpcd was active. Only NM is active

Thank you in advance!

Load up a live ISO image to eliminate hardware failure.

If persistent logging is set (the default behaviour in Arch) then you can read the journal contents (and share them here) from the live environment either by following https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/System … al_to_view or by using strings(1).

Re: Wifi problems after upgrade

I run a fully encrypted set up and sadly i dont remember how to mount the partitions from a live environment. I'm surprised i got that working at all...
It worked fine until i rebooted after upgrading so i dont think it's a hardware fault.

Re: Wifi problems after upgrade

Got the same issue, can you see if downgrading to 5.10 lts kernel fixes your issue or not
