I'm running arch with Kernel: 5.18.7-arch1-1
my wifi suddenly stopped working.. i was able to connect it during the installation and for a short time after rebooting the fresh install..
now it has completely stopped working.. i am able to connect to it but no internet access..
bluetooth and ethernet seems to work fine tho.
i found similar issues on the forum, but the solutions doesnt work..
when i'm connected, ip addr shows

ahh.. thank you so much!! damn i knew this would be fixed if i were talking to a person who really 'knows' stuff..
running
sudo dhcpcd -d --waitip=4
after installing the driver worked!
feeling silly for not checking whether right drivers were installed..
i'll mark this one as solved..
Thanks seth!!

Wowowowowow… don't run multiple network managing services concurrently.
If you want to use networkmanager, you should use networkmanager and not dhcpcd on top of it.
If you want to use dhcpcd as NM backend, see https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Networ … HCP_client
feeling silly for not checking whether right drivers were installed..
There's no "right" driver and it's common for users to get overwhelmed - broadcom sucks.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Broadcom_wireless (no other vendor needs their personal wiki …)
Please always remember to mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.
Thanks.
