Hey y'all,
(be in mind I am a newbie and this is my first time installing gentoo)
I just managed to install Gnome on Gentoo and I'm trying to set up my wifi drivers. I have an Intel AX200 (TP-Link AX3000 PCIe card specificially) and I'm trying to install drivers but I don't know how. I tried following the handbook and the different wiki pages and I don't know how to use some of the commands like mobprobe. I did "mobprobe iwlwifi" but it hasn't done anything. I don't know if I did anything wrong like didn't use some USE flags or in all honesty don't know what I'm doing.

If anyone can help out with me and get my wifi drivers working that'll be great. Thanks!

What is the problem?
It doesnt work?
Plz see
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Wifi#Kernel
Also
Code:

emrge -av linux-firmware iwd
rfkill unblock all
/etc/init.d/iwd start
 iwctl device list
 iwctl station <wlan0> scan
iwctl station <wlan0> get-networks
dmesg | grep -i firmware

Do you get a list of ssid?

When reporting a problem, you will get the best results if we understand exactly what happened that you did not want. In this case, we know that your wifi is not working to your satisfaction, but there are many ways that could be the case. Please start by showing us exactly what commands you ran that behaved differently than you expected, and the full output of those commands. What did you do that led you to believe wifi is not working properly? Does the card get an IP address, but not connect to any Internet services? Does it not get an address at all?

I did the emerge command as well as the rfkill and iwd start but it doesn't list anything on device list

gentoo ~ # iwctl device list
Devices
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name Address Powered Adapter Mode
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

gentoo ~ # iwctl station wlan0 scan
Device wlan0 not found.
No station on device: 'wlan0'

I know my card works since I use it on Windows 10 but i don't know why its not working here.

Did you configure the kernel from the above link?
If you dont know how to use it then plz try with the binary kernel
gentoo-kernel-bin.
Meanwhile plz dpate your .config
and
Code:

lspci -nkk | grep -A3 $(lspci | grep -i wireless | awk '{ print $1 }')
