NetworkManager and DHCP issues with WLAN on HP laptop running Gentoo

I'm running Gentoo. I have a HP laptop with the touch screen. I put the default GNOME on it. Problem was that Wayland didn't like touch screens. So I did the update and put X on it. Everything worked fine, until I saw that GNOME upgrade brought NetworkManager. And so I tried to switch to using it. Unfortunately that didn't work. My wlan0 interface failed to load. Looking into dmrsg I saw Ieee80211 phy0: Failed to add default virtual face There is no debug output in the dmesg. Next thing - I tried to switch back to using dhcpcd. But the same thing happened - I got exactly the same error. Unfortunately, even after I tried to turn on the debugging printouts nothing printed. I'm on the 6.6.21 kernel version right now. I can provide more info if asked, just don't know what. Does anybody know what could be the issue? And how to find the cause of the problem? The laptop doesn't have a wired network jack so I can't get online. Thank you. EDIT: dhcpcd is definitely running: ps aux | grep dhcp root 1455 0.0 0.0 3100 2324 ? S Jul 04 0.00 dhcpcd [manager] [ip4] [ip6] So it is definitely running. The output of ifconfig is as follows: lo: flags=73 mcu 65536 inet: 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 inet6: ::1 prefixlen 128 scopeId 0x18 loop: txqueuelen 1800 (local loopback) RX packet 0 bytes 0 (0.0.8) TX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0.8) TIA!!
