[SOLVED] No WIFI(Wireless) interface

I just install arch linux, but when i try to connect my wifi i noticed i dont have any wireless interface.
this is the output of "ip addr show":

1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
    inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    inet6 ::1/128 scope host noprefixroute 
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
2: enp1s0f0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state DOWN group default qlen 1000
    link/ether dc:4a:3e:63:70:f2 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    altname enxdc4a3e6370f2

Re: [SOLVED] No WIFI(Wireless) interface

You can probably skip "modprobe broadcom"
