Networkmanager can't see wifi (plasma)

Ask Fedora

So not sure why. Did a netinstall and built a plasma desktop.

Firmware is being loaded 
[    5.398015] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: enabling device (0000 -> 0002)
[    5.456353] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: loaded firmware version 36.9f0a2d68.0 op_mode iwlmvm

[    5.835685] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0 wlp1s0: renamed from wlan0

No blocks

But network manager just doesn’t see the device:1f20f83dcd383e2f3c30c4b378e21fc9a344f3f7.png

Probably missed something simple installing, but for the life of me can’t imagine what. Any ideas?

Ok, so I finally gave in and just did a dnf search networkmanager and saw the networkmanager-wifi package…so yes, it was just me forgetting to install something, works fine now.
