Are there relative messages in the system / networking logs?

Does downgrading "dhcpcd" fix the issue?

What did you do with Network Manager? What did you do with "netctl"?

Re: [Solved] After updating, not having internet connection

i don't have the package on the cache to downgrade and i did not found it actually since arch is a rolling release distro.
on Netctl i've enable my wireless profile, and wasn't working, and on NetworkManager, i've connected to the network (im using gnome desktop, connected using the gui) and i wasn't able to even to connect to router or update the system.
in every case, when i run "ip link" the wlan interface was UP.

Did you try the ARM to find an older package : https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ar … ck_Machine.

This makes no sense unless, for whatever reason, you cleared your cache immediately after your last update (three days ago according to your log).

Just to make sure we're on the same page, we're talking about your local /var/cache/pacman/pkg package cache https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Do … g_packages

Re: [Solved] After updating, not having internet connection

i've completelty forgot about ARM, ty based forum for remembering me.
i was talking about package dowload cache.
btw, i had fixed it using a chroot, but i still wanna to report that, that update might broke very similar systems...
an admin can close this now.

Re: [Solved] After updating, not having internet connection

How exactly did you fix it?

You should mark it solved yourself - edit the first post and prepend the thread title with [solved].

Re: [Solved] After updating, not having internet connection

using a chroot from a old livecd image created by me i've just compressed binary files and made a ~fake~ pkgbiuld to install the old binary and config files, it was just a provisory fix, i'm going to reinstall it using ARM now.

The old PKGBUILDs and other files are available: https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit … ges/dhcpcd -> previous version: https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit … 4c35f07d79
