I was just using my home WiFi when it suddenly stopped working after what seems to be a recent update. My device can see the network and connects to it, but no data is going through. Interestingly, when I switch to using my mobile hotspot, everything functions just fine. I'm currently on CachyOS. So far, I've tried rebooting my router and signing back into the WiFi, but that hasn't resolved the issue.

Have you tried pinging your router? That could give more insight into what's going wrong. It’s a simple way to check your connectivity.
You might want to run the command 'lspci -v' to get more details about your hardware. Checking if the live system works could also help diagnose the issue.
I ran the command, but it looks like 'ip route' isn’t providing an IP address for my WiFi connection. It works fine with the hotspot, though!
