I installed archlinux properly but my wifi is not working.

Did the wifi work during installation? If not, how are you able to complete the installation?

Follow this thread, there is a upstream bug in Arch 6.9 specifically and not the previous ones... https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=218895

Yes, during the installation, wifi was working properly. After the installation it doesn't work.

Now, it is solved. I went to https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=296101

and downloaded linux-6.9.1.arch1-2 with the above applied:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hTLQMo … sp=sharing linux-headers-6.9.1.arch1-2.1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

and installed it with

pacman -U path/to/files

then reboot
