I have some problems connecting the wifi after I have booted the usb-image to install Arch Linux.
This is a Microsoft Surface Book 2.
ip link: wlan0 device is UP. (And mode is dormant, is that a problem?)
rfkill: unblocked.
iwctl: After scanning for networks it finds my network, and when I connect to it it asks for password. I enter password and get no error.
Here is where the problems start. If I do station wlan0 show, it says "connecting". And "Is DHCP client configured?" I guess I have to configure systemd-networkd so that it can get assigned a network setup from the dhcp server. I have tried doing what it says in the corresponding article, but nothing seems to work. I have seen some mention of dhcpcd, is that something I must configure?
I'm a bit confused, because all tutorials I have watched just shows them doing the iwctl part, and immediately after they have done that they are able to ping external servers. Also, I'm running Linux Mint on the same pc, wifi works fine here.
Any ideas?

Edit:
I made it work by restarting the iwd.service, and then connecting again. So for others with Surface Book 2 and the same problem, you can try:
1. Try connecting as described in the guide. (Gets stuck on "Connecting")
2. Exit iwctl
3. systemctl restart iwd.service
4. iwctl
5. station device connect ssid
6. enter password.
7. station device show (to check if it worked)
