Thoughts? I'm used to apt, not pacman, but this seems like it might be something else. Is it missing an "apt update" equivalent? "apt update" is the first thing I usually have to do on a new install, but I guess it's different with pacman?
Any advice?

i think pacman -Syu is apt update and apy upgrade
your problem looks like internet problem so i would try to change the mirror
