The latest core/linux package from Archlinux doesn't load the iwlwifi module and the wi-fi card is not recognized, as discussed in [1]. Applying a patch from Manjaro[2] in core/linux 4.17.3 fixes the problem.

I've attached my lspci output for additional info.
There is a patch here[1] from July 25, 2018, is not exactly the same with Manjaro patch. Apparently the patch is accepted, but I'm not sure in what Linux version.
[1] https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10528929/
Missed the 4.17.12-rc1 so earliest stable would be 4.17.13 or the 4.18 series whichever comes first.
"From the bug report I see that you are asking about this patch:
0a5257bc6d89 iwlwifi: add more card IDs for 9000 series
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10528929/
It's in wireless-drivers currently and I'll try to get it to 4.18 still
but not sure if it makes it. But it will be in 4.19 for sure (unless
something really surprising happens)."
queued for 4.17.13
