Not sure what you mean by this. It should work on iwlwifi kernel module. Have you tried booting in the standard current kernel? I see this is zen-kernel.
Edit: What does this show?
sudo dmesg | grep iwl
Welcome to the forum @Franck
Check the file
cat /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf
You may need to set powersave option.
options iwlwifi swcrypto=0 bt_coex_active=0 power_save=0
Edit: Add the above options and reboot. See if that works.
Where i have to add the above options?
EDIT:
I don’t have the first file
You would have to create it then.
sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf
Add
options iwlwifi swcrypto=0 bt_coex_active=0
Ctrl + o then enter to save
Ctrl + x to exit nano
Still nothing
It seems likes there Is no driver

This is the result
It shows iwlwifi
should be your driver, as @ricklinux found, but apparently it isn’t installed!
Next step would be this one:
sudo pacman -S linux-firmware
…and reboot.
Does your WiFi work after these 2 steps?
The device is supported by kernel versions from 4.2 to 5.12 according to the LKDDb
So i have to use a older kernel?
Might be worth trying.
Have a look here:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Unofficial_user_repositories#kernel-lts
LKDDB is also not updated
I was thinking the same.
@Franck:
Did you try this?
as for now try it to use linux kernel, you said in tg it worked in live environment. but you using linux-zen… would figure bit out in linux kernel.
by checking
https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi
i saw this →
If you have a dual-boot machine with a recent version of Windows and start seeing problems during initialization of the WiFi device when booting Linux, the problem could be due to the “fast startup” feature on Windows.
With this feature enabled, Windows don’t really shut down the entire system, but leaves things partially running so you can start the machine faster again. Try to disable this option, on Windows 10 it should be in “Control Panel→Hardware and Sound→Power Options→System Settings”. Select “Chooose what the power buttons do” to access the System Settings from the Power Options. Then disable the “Fast Startup” option in “Shutdown Settings”. This will cause Windows to fully shutdown and may solve the issue.
might be interesting ?
