Re: [SOLVED] Can't connect to network

How, specifically did you run dhcpcd?

With the static address, what is the output of ip route

And, what are the contents of /etc/resolv.conf   ??

Re: [SOLVED] Can't connect to network

I ran

sudo dhcpcd enp3s0

ip route:

default via 192.168.1.1 dev enp3s0
192.168.1.0/24 dev enp3s0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.1.2

/etc/resolv.conf:

nameserver 192.168.1.1

Does the led flash on the interface when you plug in the cable?

Re: [SOLVED] Can't connect to network

I figured it out. For some bizarre reason my desktop can't autonegotiate the link speed of the ethernet cable, even though my laptop appears to be able to. I had to set the speed manually, and then it worked like a charm.
