I am using asus tuf b650m-e wifi and there is a built in wifi I have checked the bios is it enabled or not and made sure everything is fine but I am facing this issue. how can I fix this can anyone help please.
No device in Station mode available. I was using a mediatek driver suggested from the official site to make my wifi 6 available. Right now the situation is omarchy found the blutooth out but not the wifi. I am using ethernet cable, it's a bit frustrating.

After installation, I am not able to open the wifi-settings using the UI (Modal). Is this a known issue? iwctl device list does not show any devices.
I also downloaded linux-firmware-mediatek-20251021-1-any.pkg.tar.zst and installed it. Still did not help.

Rebooting Omarchy seems to solve it for a little bit, no windows needed. I found this in journalctl:

I don't know why fcitix would be related, but when the wifi is offline the TUI is often unresponsive and just closes no matter what input is entered. Pressing 's' to scan will close the window.

well, your wifi card has not been detected.

#

what does this show

lspci | grep WiFi
prime fossil
#

lspci | grep -i wifi results in no output

tiny niche
#

you have no wifi card then

prime fossil
#

Well I do. I was just using it a day ago when windows 11 was installed on that machine 😉

#

I'll reinstall again to make sure, that I have not messed up and settings. Will get back here in a couple of minutes.

lsmod | grep wifi

do you have linux-firmware package installed ?

prime fossil
#

Yes I have installed linux-firmware-mediatek-20251021-1-any.pkg.tar (some reddit post and github issue proposed that)

#

That was the only thing that I have changed after installation.
