I think the solusion is to manually download the driver and install it, but I do not know which driver :frowning:


Moderator edit: Removed useless screenshots

It is of course possible to download a driver (i do not know wich), transfer it on a flash and install offline…but it will be easier just to connect with a lan cable. Or if you have a recent phone with usb c, plug that as a tetherin device. And you will have internet.
And be able to search with pamac, and install with mwhd which will probably download the correct driver itself (you read the wiki how to use it?).

But the very first thing you will have to do before doing anything is

sudo pacman -Syyu

P.s. and then install kernel 6.6. And than play with mhwd.
