Hey guys, downloaded Arch Linux today, was reading the begginer install guide, and need to know what command should i use to make my Wifi work correctly at Install, i am using this:
# wpa_passphrase Exploit "93517781" > /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
# wpa_supplicant -B -Dwext -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
Is that correct? or should i use another commands to make my WPA-PSK, with TKIP encrypt, work fine?
Ty

Instead of looking at the install guide try looking at the Beginners Guide. It will give you the next couple of steps to make sure that you are connected.

O.K. So did you bring your interface up, request an ip address and ping google and all that? Did you figure it out?

When you ran dhcpd (interfacenamehere) did it give you an ip address? I ask because I had to do the same thing at install (no ethernet) and it worked straight away for me.

Are you sure that your /etc/rc.conf is set up right? I remember having some problems that were related to that. Like is your interface listed in the interfaces there and your hostname set right etc..?

It has been a while since I did my install. But I think that you might need to make sure that you at least are using the right name server. Is there anything in /etc/resolv.conf?
