[SOLVED] wlan controller missing almost every other boot

hardware information:
- laptop: HP ENVY x360 Convertible 15z-ds1000
- WLAN controller: Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX200NGW

I would estimate that about half the time I boot, I have no wifi controller. Specifically, `iwctl station list` returns "No devices in Station mode available", and hwinfo does not list my WLAN controller. Rebooting until the controller shows up has consistently worked for a while now, but I would prefer a more permanent solution.

hwinfo on good boot: http://ix.io/4aJR
hwinfo on bad boot: http://ix.io/4aJU

Re: [SOLVED] wlan controller missing almost every other boot

Rather post the system journal for either boot and see https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Iwd#Re … after_boot (eg. compare https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=278482 )
Otherwise, is there a parallel windows installation?
