Hi! I can’t use my wifi card. I bought a TP-LINK AC1300 Wireless Dual Band PCI Express Adapter Archer T6E and the system does not recognize it. The drivers disk that comes with it is only for Windows. I tried following several community instructions but none of them work. Help!!!

Try this:
pamac install linux69-broadcom-wl
Make sure that you have the kernel headers installed as well.
pamac install linux69-headers

You could have done without yay - just with pacman. Seems like one of the cases where the headers are needed although they are not in theory. Me personally i always install the headers with the kernel, just in case something like this happens and there is no obvious error.
The other package is the drivers for broadcom as already pointed in the posts above, because that tplink uses broadcom chip.
Which is kind a strange for me…tplink was atheros client for years, which was bought by qualcomm…later they wanted to merge with broadcom but the deal was off (i think Trump stopped this to become the biggest radiochip monopoly…but i have already forgotten the details). So being a chip maker yourself and buying chips from the competition is kinda funny…but well we see it all the time, Apple still buys some components from Samsung, etc.
P.s. still, something is off with your pamac. Probably the database is broken or not refreshed or you have used sudo pamac which you should not do. You can open another topic for that if you refresh mirrors and the database and still cannot install anything with pamac.
