Can't connect to internet through wired connection on fresh install.

I just installed arch on a new machine, but after rebooting I can no longer connect to the internet.

Here is the output of ip link:

1:  lo:  <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
        link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00

        link/ether 00:24:7e:05:31:6c brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

Here is the output of ip addr:

                 valid_lft 309138sec preferred_lft 309138sec

Here is the some information about the ethernet controller from lspci -v:

And here is the portions of dmesg related to the driver:

The archiso was able to connect, but it seemed to have dhcpcd already installed, while my installation does not. I am very confused and have never had this problem on any previous installations, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Can't connect to internet through wired connection on fresh install.

From Installation_guide#Install_essential_packages

The base package does not include all tools from the live installation, so installing other packages may be necessary for a fully functional base system. In particular, consider installing:

  • userspace utilities for the management of file systems that will be used on the system,

  • utilities for accessing RAID or LVM partitions,

  • specific firmware for other devices not included in linux-firmware,

  • software necessary for networking,

  • a text editor,

  • packages for accessing documentation in man and info pages: man-db, man-pages and texinfo.

Emphasis added.

Oh, oops. Is dhcpcd enough? I don't remember having to do anything last time I installed it.
