Wireless stopped working

Hello!

I just updated my Arch for the first time for some months and after rebooting the wireless stopped working, i.e. the network interface for the wireless disappeared.

I'm using Network manager and I have a Dell XPS 15 with Intel Wireless-N 1030.

'dmesg | grep iwl' gives me:

[    6.417102] iwlwifi: Intel(R) Wireless WiFi Link AGN driver for Linux, in-tree:

[    6.418178] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: no suitable firmware found!

I didn't get anywhere by Googling, so do you know what could be wrong?

All the best,
Olaf
