Any ideas how to fix this?

Which were?

Ensure all packages are up-to-date and reboot. Try a different kernel.

I updates today after I was away for 2 weeks.

Already done. This is not fixing the problem

Btw: I saw firmware crashes before but I was still able to use WLAN, now I'm not.

[felixoi]

I figured out it's somehow an issue in NetworkManager. I downgraded it and now it's working again.

@felixoi

an issue in NetworkManager. I downgraded it

Please report your working version

pacman -Q networkmanager

[felixoi]

I used the downgrader aur package which downgraded to networkmanager 1.8.5dev+22+g5f2855fad-1

Just a guess here, since i also had some issues with some connections, a bit different, but yet once i edited the /etc/dhcpcd.conf on this section from:

# Use the hardware address of the interface for the Client ID.
#clientid
# or
# Use the same DUID + IAID as set in DHCPv6 for DHCPv4 ClientID as per RFC4361.
# Some non-RFC compliant DHCP servers do not reply with this set.
# In this case, comment out duid and enable clientid above.
duid

to

# Use the hardware address of the interface for the Client ID.
clientid
# or
# Use the same DUID + IAID as set in DHCPv6 for DHCPv4 ClientID as per RFC4361.
# Some non-RFC compliant DHCP servers do not reply with this set.
# In this case, comment out duid and enable clientid above.
#duid

my systems are hassle free regarding the connections

Fixed since latest stable updates.
