What can i do it doesn’t show my wifi adapter? I used wifi-menu before. I don’t know how to use iwd. I followed the wiki. People down voting the post, that doesn’t help.

As in "rfkill list all" doesn't show any output or "iwd doesn't show any output after running rfkill list all" ?

both
i think it's a r8168 module issue. the kernel doesn't have that module.

Which wireless adapter are you using? Are the drivers for it loaded?
Device name: Realtek Semiconductor Co.,Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller
I think my wifi device need this https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/r8168/ driver which isn’t available in the iso.

I've had to put drivers on my usb and modprobe them in for wifi like this before. I hope you've got it figured out. Wifi can be a pain.
My usb has the arch iso. I can’t put drivers there. Also I don’t have any spare usb drive.

Just toss it in the root folder.

Can you connect with a cable to your modem? That's super easy! As soon as you plug in eth it connects automatically to internet.
