installed a fresh arch on my laptop and i'm trying to connect wirelessly to iMac internent sharing
so i can continue the installation however, when i
dhcpcd eth1
it says:
dhcpcd: eth1 waiting for carrier
dhcpcd: timed out
and i'm unable to connect
i've looked around but could not find any answer to this problem
i came to conclude, the problem might be because the iMac bridge the connection however not sure
how to fix this or what shall i do next now
i tried to use static IP but didn't know how to set it up or from where to get the data i need
thank you

Are you sure the interface is good?
Show your:
ifconfig -a
, please.
If right your interface, try install netcfg, or dhclient, and try again.
Btw, you can see this threads: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=59340
Good luck!

thanks for the replay after testing for hours
it appeared when i use encrypted (web - 40 bit) code for the network dhcpcd dosn't work
while if it is unencrypted i'm able to connect easily
therefore the problem is solved for now!
thanks
