WIFI suddenly stopped working

I've just installed archlinux on a Lenovo Miix 310, WI-FI worked perfectly during the installation, but when I rebooted my computer. The ouput of

 ip link 

doesn't show my wi-fi card, only lo. I've installed linux-firmware, my module isn't mentioned in dmesg. The wi-fi card is a Realtek rtl8723bs, and is in the linux-firmware package. The output of

 rfkill list all

doesn't mention my card either.

Re: WIFI suddenly stopped working

Probably is due to a kernel update. I've the same issue with Intel WiFi, I've to downgrade to the previous version available on Arch repositories (sorry, I don't remember the versions).

Re: WIFI suddenly stopped working

Do the version numbers reported by uname -a and by pacman -Q linux match?  (If you are using an alternate kernel, change that second command as necessary)

Re: WIFI suddenly stopped working

The problem is that I can't access internet at all know. I'll see the versions of the kenel when I'll have access to my laptop.
Thanks!

Re: WIFI suddenly stopped working

I don't think it's because of a kernel update because my archlinux USB stick can't detect my WIFI card
