Can’t get wifi set up. Solved

I recently installed Arch Linux and am trying to get wifi set up with iwd, I connected using iwctl and it didn’t give any errors, iw wlan0 link also said it was connected to the network, but whenever I try to ping something or use Pacman it tells me it couldn’t connect. It works in the arch install live enivrement but not in the actual system. Wifi Driver: ath9k I hope someone can help me ?

Edit:Solved

If you're only using iwd (and not eg. also dhcpcd) you'll need to https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Iwd#En … figuration

Otherwise post the outputs of

ip a; ip r;  cat /etc/resolv.conf; resolvectl status

Thanks, that worked great. I really should have read the wiki more closely on that.
