Issues with Realtek Semiconducter RTL8111/8168/8411 on a Getac B300
Hey all. So I received my new toughbook today, and popped my Arch USB into it to see how well it plays. When I tried pinging various websites, I got nothing, even though I know that the connection works (tested it on both a ThinkCentre and ThinkPad). After rebooting dhcpcd and the interface using systemctl and ifconfig respectively, still nothing. I'm not really sure how I'd go about troubleshooting, since I'm still relatively new to Arch, so I looked around online and it seems like there's no info about the B300 and Linux compatibility, but I did hear that this particular NIC was troublesome. Would anyone here happen to be able to point me in the right direction?
EDIT: Couldn't include in the title due to character limit; the interface is a PCIe Ethernet connector

Ah... my apologies, I wasn't aware that this should have been posted in the Newbie Corner. Although the NIC isn't wireless, it's an Ethernet connector. I should have specified that in the original post, it's been updated now.
