installation via wifi

I'm having network problems after rebooting my system, only having a Wi-Fi connection.
The network basically doesn't work, even when I manually set it up with iwctl.
I'm only using systemd-networking, systemd-revolved, and iwd. The DE I use is KDE.
Where am I missing some step in the installation wizard?

Please don't paraphrase, https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=57855

wifi did work during the installation?
You maybe forgot the firmware or require an OOT module (broadcom)

lspci -k | grep -iA3 net

KDE supports networkmanager with wpa_supplicant as its backend (by an applet called plasma-nm).
Try disabling all the other stuff, install networkmanager, wpa_supplicant and plasma-nm, enable NetworkManager.service (do not enable wpa_supplicant).

Do you mean archinstall?
