Connection timeout steam games

Hello everyone. I am having some weird connection timeout problems with wired connection in Arch Linux 2017.05.01. Especially while playing online games with Steam here systemctl status dhcpc.service output:

● dhcpcd.service - dhcpcd on all interfaces

and sometimes I have to refresh the web pages to load. I don't know it it's something about firewall or? any help will be appreciated. thank you.

Please provide more details of your setup: hardware, card, how you manage your connection and the output of:

systemctl list-unit-files --state enabled

[yggdrasil@ashtree ~]$ systemctl list-unit-files --state enabled

10 unit files listed.

it's not really playable. something to do with cache or firewall? i am currently using wired connection.

I asked for more detail than that...

In any event, as the wiki makes explicitly clear, if you have more than one network service enabled, they will conflict.

sorry for misunderstood. i disabled networkmanager service now, dhcpcd is on. it works better now i guess. i didn't know about "if you have more than one network service enabled, they will conflict." i will read the wiki again about networking. thank you!
