I'm unable to use wifi in Arch Linux on my Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Extreme (Gen 2). I verified that the Intel AX200 network interface works through windows. I'm accessing the local network (and the internet through it) via a wired network connection.
I'm running Linux version 5.5.9-arch1-2 (linux@archlinux) (gcc version 9.3.0 (Arch Linux 9.3.0-1))
The systemd journal holds this info:

When I look into the NetworkManager systemd logs, there seems to be at least an attempt to use the wifi:
