my wifi connection switches off after an indefinite period of time

my wifi connection switches off after an unknown amount of time. I am scanning wlan0 with iwtcl but again no network is visible.

ip link set wlan0 up

command does not work either. the only solution I have found so far is to reboot. When I reboot, the networks appear and connect to the network.

[mehmetali@archlinux ~]$ ip link
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
2: enp1s0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 68:1d:ef:18:78:a3 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
3: wlan0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP mode DORMANT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 44:ef:bf:2a:53:77 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

Please post your complete system journal for an affected boot, eg:

sudo journalctl -b -1 | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st

for the previous ("-1") one.

Ceterum Censeo: If there's a parallel windows, see the 3rd link below. Mandatory.
Disable it (it's NOT the BIOS setting!) and reboot windows and linux twice for voodo reasons.

I had windows before but I deleted the disc with windows installed and installed it on it.

Re: my wifi connection switches off after an indefinite period of time

So your answer to "which network manager do I want to use?" was "yes"?

You've NM, networkd, dhcpcd, iwd and wpa_supplicant running.
Pick one manager, disable all others. If you want to use alternative wifi carriers or dhcp clients for NM, configure it respectively.
Afterwards post the output of

find /etc/systemd -type l -exec test -f {} \; -print | awk -F'/' '{ printf ("%-40s | %s\n", $(NF-0), $(NF-1)) }' | sort -f
