windows 11

3rd link below. Mandatory.
Disable it (it's NOT the BIOS setting!) and reboot windows and linux twice for voodo reasons.

ip l
rfkill
lspci -k

Did you forget to install linux-firmware?

If you talk about windows fast-boot, i no longer have windows, and when i have it it's one of the first thing i disable for a good access to bios

Actually i no longer have windows, i just keep it for test the hardware for choice if I keep the laptop or resend it. Actually i have only Arch Linux install on it

Re: [SOLVED] unable to make my wireless device avalible with nmcli

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/FTR
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/NIC#Noun

It's btw. also "example", https://deepl.com/

i manualy change ssid name

that's probably not helpful, but the idea would be to connect to one of them using commands illustrated in thw wiki and then you'd have to report on the outcome.
