I use networkmanager (nmcli interface). wifi always worked fine on my laptop. But recently (maybe, after an upgrade of networkmanager) I get
Code:

bilbo ~ # nmcli con up hogwarts
Error: Connection activation failed: No suitable device found for this connection (device wlan0 not available because device is not available).
bilbo ~ # nmcli con
NAME                UUID                                  TYPE      DEVICE

        TX packets 0  bytes 0 (0.0 B)

How to get wifi working again?

Its the latest NM built with iwd.
Plz try
Code:

USE="-iwd" emerge -1av networkmanager

if it works plz make it permanent via package.use.
OR downgrade to stable version of NM.
Code:

emerge -1av =net-misc/networkmanager-1.38.2

then temporarily mask unstable.
