Hello everyone,
I just decided to give Manjaro a try so a total newbie here, please bear with someone coming from Ubuntu 
Having said that, I just installed Qonos 21.2.1 and everything was great at first, but after my a few updates installed my wired connection stopped working.
By the way, Iām using Wireless adapter to write this post, which seems to be working

Profile 1 is just the name of the wired connection I manually re-created, with the hope of being able to have wired back...but it didn't work.
Any idea what can I do here? I don't want to be forced to use WiFi or re-install Manjaro again? I tried to check if it was possible to reinstall network drivers but I find documentation not very clear on that here **Manjaro Hardware Detection Overview**
