Wireless card not working

Hi everybody,

I am struggling with my wifi card with my first manjaro distro. Somehow my wifi card was detected and was working just fine but now it is not working anymore. The card is a Mediatek MT7921.
As you can see with this command it is not properly detected.

inxi -Fz

And with lspci, the model number is incorrect :

cat /etc/modprobe.d/mhwd-gpu.conf

Do you have any ideas on how to correct this ? I can provide more informations if necessary.

Thanks

What about trying another kernel like 5.10 ?

Ok so I have found the solution. Since the wireless card is pretty recent, it still have some bugs. To reset the card on my Asus gaming laptop, I have hold the power button for 60 seconds.
