No wifi connection after fresh install on ROG Zephrus G14

Hi, I just ran a fresh install on my Zephyrus laptop to find that Arch was not detecting the wlan0 device and I could not connect to wifi. I assume this is a driver problem, but I'm not sure where to get the drivers for my device. i have an Intel AX200 rev 1a network card.

That depends on what card is in the laptop...

Unfortunately, that did not seem to help, none of the network utilities lists my adapter and my card, an AX200, was not listed in the driver section. After a bit of research, it seems its drivers are supposed to be included with the Linux-firmware package so I tried installing the ucodes manually, to no effect

At this point, without actual commands and output, it is a tedious game of twenty questions. See How To Ask Questions The Smart Way

Just follow the instructions in the link in post #2, and the when you hit a command that does not produce the expected outcome, paste the exact command and output here.

See the tip box from pastebin to post the output of commands from the console.
If the system has no net access dump the output to a file,  copy to removable media and post from a system with net access.

I got it working! I'm not sure what happened. I burnt a fresh usb stick and ran it and the adapter suddenly apeared! I was then able to connect via the WSC push-button mode.
