setting upp network in ARCH

[broomy]

hi i have edited my rc.conf so that i have the dns settings and i have added the line "alias eth0 8139too" to my etc/modules.conf and i tried dhcpcd start and ifconfig eth0 up but i cant get connected. when i do a ifconfig it looks like i have a connection, it says FULL DUPLEX and other things, what can be wrong? wich files schuld i edit?

could be a dns issue

 

what ip address do you have reported via ifconfig ?

can you ping google.com ?

can you ping googles IP address ?

can you ping anything local ?

 

if it's a DNS issue then you need to start looking at /etc/resolve.conf

 

cheers
