Uninstall this^^^

Then install the following from the AUR:

b43-firmware

Reboot:

If still not working post:

inxi -Fxxxza
grep -r "blacklist\|install\|options"  /etc/modprobe.d/ /etc/modules-load.d/ /usr/lib/modprobe.d/ 
sudo dmesg  | grep -Ei "(error|fail|firm|regdom|cfg80211|alpha2|wmi|wl|80211|deauth|rtl88*)" | grep -viE "(acpi|ras|nvidia|*faillock|eth)"
