Netctl problem - No connection on interface 'enp1s0'

Question

I'm trying to switch from netcfg to netctl.  Since the network won't come up, it would be difficult to post actual logs so I'm typing all this in.
/etc/netctl/mynet looks like:
Description='My net'
Interface=enp1s0
Connection=ethernet
IP=static
Address=('192.168.1.102/24')
When I try to start it, I get from systemctl status [email protected]:
... network[1877]: Starting network profile 'mynet' ...
... network[1877]: No connection on interface 'enp1s0'
and then some failed/exited messages.
Sorry that's not much to go on, but perhaps someone can point me in the right direction.

Answer 1

Heh, it just dawned on me that I could use the modem even if the network is down.  Just in case someone can see a typo I'm missing, here's the actual config without the commented lines:
Description='My net'
Interface=enp1s0
Connection=ethernet
IP=static
Address=('192.168.1.102/24')
#Routes=('192.168.0.0/24 via 192.168.1.2')
Gateway='192.168.1.1'
DNS=('192.168.1.1')

Finally, since the wiki mentions possible conflicts, here's the output from 'systemctl list-units'. Hopefully there's nothing confidential in there.

As you can see, it's late here and at my age, I turn into a pumpkin at midnight, so I'm off.  Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
