Anyone else have broken networking after kernel upgrade to 2.6.34.2-1
I just ran pacman -Syu to update and there was updates for the kernel and network manager. After the update, networking has stopped working. I have already tried disabling network manager and just using the network tool to no avail. Both of my network adapters are Brodcom cards. The wired nic is a BCM4401-B0 and the wireless is aBMC4318. It would be nice if the previous kernel was saved as a fall back for when things like this happen. Anyone know of a solution to fix this?

You are not the only one:

Solution is to downgrade. Do you have a copy of the old package in your pacman cache?

No, I don't have a copy of the old kernel. That was the first thing I looked for. But I must have cleared my cache just after the last kernel update. Is there any way to get it or is there another kernel I can install temporarily? It's just my laptop so if I have to wait for an update it won't kill me.

Well... that would require him to have network access 
Anyway, you can use an out-of-date mirror to grab the old package and copy it to a usb stick.
