Change name of wired and wireless extensions [SOLVED]

Hey guys,

new to archlinux, but so far really am enjoying myself.

I noticed the other day that my wired and wireless extensions are not called eth0 and wlan0 respectively. Instead they are eno1 and wlp3s0. Can someone help me change them. Everything is working, just a personal preference. Thanks again

Welcome to Arch!

See https://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail … 24223.html. You can try running:

ln -s /dev/null /etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-name-slot.rules
