Does nmtui see the network?

Did you enable and start network manager?

Do Sudo systemctl enable --now NetworkManager

I fucked up my efivarfs or skmething so i now have bigger problem

Elaborate

[plucky echo]

So i did reinstall and for got to give it a bootloader and then when i tried to give it a bootloader it efivars not available or something like that. So went through the uefi page on archlinux site trying to trouble shoot and eventually came to the conclusion my sys firmware efi was just missing

Ok so i fixed the issue

I just redid the install and installed networkmanager rightaway and for some reason it worked.
