I have installed Manjaro Linux version - “manjaro-kde-21.0.7-210614-linux510” recently in my Lenovo laptop. All are works good Except Wifi. I am unable to enable the wifi. the checkbox is non clickable.
I have tried some methods but not working…
Installed headers but not sure what should be added XXXX - “pamac build XXXX-dkms-git”
cmd: uname -a
Linux vsnu 5.10.42-1-MANJARO #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jun 3 14:37:11 UTC 2021 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Network:
Device-1: Qualcomm Atheros AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter driver: ath9k
Device-2: Realtek RTL810xE PCI Express Fast Ethernet driver: r8169
Can someone help me on this?
It would help if you would provide additional information (full inxi output) about your system, even though you might not think that it is necessary. Is it possible that there is a physical switch on that laptop that turns wifi on and off? Can you post the results of:
rfkill list
Please read:

Thanks for your quick reply. There is no physical switch to turn on the Wi Fi. Added inxi and rfkill list below
