Ok I feel kinda stupid here. Yesterday I decided to make a clean install on my system. After the installation I tried to upgrade the system but couldn't. The pacman -Syu gets me:
error: failed retrieving file 'core.db' from ftp. .. . .. : No address record
error: failed to update core (No address record)
I guess it has to do with this (http://www.archlinux.org/news/hostname- … inetutils/) but I have no idea on how to fix it. The ping command gets me:
ping: unknown host www.google.com
Any help? Thanks.
If I posted this on the wrong section feel free to change it.

Your network is down. Check if the modules are being loaded etc.

What kind of network are you using? Wireless, wired? If you use a wireless network, what kind of encryption are you using?
Check this article for information on how to setup a wireless network connection

The modules being loaded via rc.conf are: hwclock syslog-ng network nets crond

I use wired connection, ethernet. If I login via Ubuntu or Windows (triple boot) everything is fine. I have done this procedure many times. The article doesn't help (or I'm missing something).
I can't understand what's the matter.

How do you configure your network?
Here's an article on how to configure a wired network.

Just for clarification:

These are your DAEMONS, not MODULES.

Well, that did the trick. All I had to do is to add "eth0" to the interface section on rc.conf. Although I wonder why all the other times when I did a clean install, this procedure was automatic. Anyway, thank you all for your time. :-)
