I am using Manjaro Gnome for more than 2 years now, It’s my favorite distro. My WiFi was working perfectly before but after formatting my laptop and re installing Manjaro Gnome, my WiFi is not working.
It’s showing “No Wi-Fi Adapter found”.
Please any one help me…

Device-1: Broadcom BCM43142 802.11b/g/n
vendor: Dell Wireless 1704 802.11n + BT 4.0 driver: bcma-pci-bridge v: N/A
modules: bcma port: f040 bus-ID: 06:00.0 chip-ID: 14e4:4365 class-ID: 0280
Device-2: Realtek RTL810xE PCI Express Fast Ethernet vendor: Dell

Normally you need to install the driver for this card. In mhwd (or Manjaro Settings) there should be a option for installing it. If not try installing it directly:
For kernel 5.10:
pamac install linux510-broadcom-wl
and blacklist all other builtin drivers for Broadcom (what mhwd does additionally)
After a reboot, it should be available
sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
put:
blacklist dell_rbtn
reboot & try to connect.
