[Solved]Can't get Wired or Wireless Internet Working

So I installed arch on my netbook, but I'm having trouble getting both wireless and wired networking to work. When I run lspci it states I have an Atheros AR8152 Ethernet card and a Broadcom 4727 wireless device. I've tried to install the atheros driver and the b43 drivers, but I just can't seem to get them to work. Does anybody know how to fix this?

I set the eth0 parameters in /etc/rc.conf what do you have in that file for your network?


You're just jealous because the voices only talk to me.

Try as root:

dhcpcd eth0

That should put your wired up for now.

As for a permanent solution, refer to this

Re: [Solved]Can't get Wired or Wireless Internet Working

When I try that I get

dhcpcd: version 5.2.2 starting
dhcpcd: eth0: interace not found or invalid

The problem I'm having is that when I run iwconfig the only thing that shows up is lo. There is no eth0 or wlan0.

EDIT: It seems that upgrading the kernel seemed to work.
