Network remains unreachable after much googling - wiki

Hello. I just installed Arch and in the command: ping -c3 8.8.8.8, it responds that Network is unreachable. I did much googling and I read many articles on wiki, but nothing changed.
In the command ip a, it says that my wired Ethernet is the enp4s0, and the wireless wlp3s0.  Even the command systemctl enable [email protected] did not help at all...
Internet connection exists when I use the live CD for installation Arch.

To reiterate a point I had to make on your previous thread from yesterday:
Trilby wrote:Konstantinos, this is only meant for your benefit, but perhaps archlinux isn't right for you yet ... The errors above suggest that you will have a hard time following the wiki and man page documentation - this will likely just lead to much greater frustration with archlinux even if you get it installed.  So perhaps tinker with some other distros for a while first.

I truly believe arch is not a good fit for you currently.  And if you decide to try to push your way through, that is up to you, we would welcome you and do our best to help.  But if you continue as you are in this thread, you will quickly wear out that welcome.

  • Network is unreachable

    I've been at this for the third weekend in a row now and still can't get it. I've read all the previous posts, read the wiki, read everything but my network still isn't working. I can install arch easily enough (nice job with the new installer) but like I said, I can't get the network.
            I've got a four port modem/router and have a static ip. According to the wiki and the other posts I've read my rc.conf file is setup correctly (I think). Straight after an install of arch I try the following 'pacman -Sy'
    then it comes back saying
    current locale is invalid...
    error:failed to synchronize current: Transient resolver failure
    and basically continues on like this, saying failed to synchronize, for another 6-7 lines.
    When I try 'ping 192.168.1.1' It comes back with
    connect: Network is unreachable
    The relevant bit from my rc.conf file
    lo="lo 127.0.0.1"
    eth0="eth0 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255"
    INTERFACES=(lo eth0)
    gateway="default gw 192.168.0.1"
    ROUTES=(!gateway)
    Because I don't have the net working I can't 'pacman' and graphical interface yet so I'm still on the command line making it difficult to copy everything down here. Any help would be fantastic, thanks.

    To manage networking in your Linux box, you need to know at least two command as the following:
                   1. If you want to set IP address for your PC as 192.168.0.2/24, use this command:
                        #ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0
                   2. If your gateway is 192.168.0.254:
                        #route add default gw 192.168.0.254
    If you want to set up DNS server, so that you can access websites, for example:
    open /etc/resolv.conf file and add the following entry:
                           nameserver  ip.address.of.dns.server
    If there is a dhcp server in your network, the quickest way is:
                     #dhcpcd eth0
    Use Ping to troubleshoot the network problem.

  • Bootcamp: WinXP: Network initialization takes too much time

    Hey
    I've set up a BootCamp partition on my Macbook 6,1: Windows XP Professional 32-bit SP3 (up-to-date).
    Its a fresh installation, with latest BootCamp drivers.
    From start on, the network-initialization takes too much time:
    - Windows boots up
    - Enter password
    - Desktop appear
    - after 2-3 minutes, the network symbols appear in the taskbar.
    If I open the System Control panel and want to enter the networking-devices it loads until network is really initiated.
    I also can't browse to any web-site (through IE).
    So, it seems that something blocks or prevent the networking from fast start-up.
    I've tried to disable WLAN, same problem
    If I disconnect all connections (no LAN-cable, no WLAN configured) its still the same problem.
    Does anybody have a similar issue?

    You can read: I have installed BootCamp (Lions one said no, but I have an MacBook 6,1 - Yep, this one was shipped with Snow Leopard, so I have the "old" BootCamp drivers with XP-drivers on my Install-disc.).
    The BootCamp drivers from the Mac OSX 10.6 CD are installed and updated through Apple-Update.
    So, WinXP should be supported?

  • [Solved] connect: Network is unreachable

    After 5 unsuccessful Arch Linux installations, I've got two that installed correctly. The first time, the network worked fine, and I was even installing it over SSH. After booting from the installed system instead of the live CD, it can't connect to the network, I get the following message when I try to ping anything, even my router:
    connect: Network is unreachable
    I've tried installing Arch again, because nothing on the internet seemed to fix my issue. After installing, I'm getting the same issue.
    It appears it's failing to start eth0 because eth0 times out.

    sorry about that. I did mean "systemctl".

    What exactly should I look for? It spits out a bunch of info, but I'm not pasting it all here, as I can't copy and paste using SSH and its on a different computer, in a different room.
    that command gives you an enumerated list of your network interfaces. You should look to see if you have interface named eth0.

  • Pismoscreen remains dark after start  - please help

    My pismo screen remains dark after starting the computer, I just controlled the electrical connections as previous described in the forum but with no results.
    Starting by cd has no effects - the screen remains dark, but the computer is visible as volume in the network .
    As my powerbook has the same default after an expensive repair by apple 1 year ago (they did´nt even tell me what was going wrong) , I would like to know what could be the reason of the malfunction and if there is a possibility to fix the problem by myself.
    regards
    zacambo

    Cacker,
    I would certainly give the microprocessor card a shot as described in an earlier reply.
    When the 'book is running, can you move the display from almost closed to fully opened (almost 180º) and cause the backlight to light up? If so, you have a loose connection or damaged wires where they pass through the hinges/clutches.
    You will want to lift off the keyboard and heat shield and check the inverter/backlight connections on the logic board.
    Since you can see data, one inexpensive repair is replacing the inverter board ($10-15); this powers the fluorescent backlight and is very easy to replace. See this link for the inverter and cables.
    http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/6.12.10.html
    Note: You do NOT have to remove all the items as shown in this guide. To replace the inverter, remove all power > keyboard (don't disconnect - just lay it on the palm rest upside down) > heat shield > clutch cover.
    Here is the full guide:

  • Screen remaining blurred after Alert dismissed [EDITED]

    I've got something really quirky going on. Much of the time, when I use an alert, the screen remains blurred after the Alert has been dismissed. Has anyone run into this?
    I had assumed that I could only close a TitleWindow after all the code I want executed was complete or the destruction of the popup would interfere. Testing doesn't seem to support that. So will something like this work without interfering with subsequent code? Will the event dispatch still take place regardless of timing issues? (disregard syntax errors below, just talking conceptual here).
    protected function doSomething():void{
         PopupManager.removePopup(this);
         dispatchEvent(new Event("myEvent"));

    I had this problem since months, and no one even was able to have any stab at it.
    I updated the original post with more details.

  • I updated my iPod Touch to 6.0.1. after much prompting. Now my music is gone! (along with apps, photos and podcasts). After syncing a bunch of times some of it came back, but not all of it. How odd is that? How can I get my music back on it??

    I updated my iPod Touch to 6.0.1. -- after much prompting from iTunes. Now my music is GONE (along with apps, photos and podcasts). After syncing a bunch of times some of it came back, but not all of it. How odd is that? How can I get my music back?? I'm really bummed! Everything shows in iTunes, but it's not synching right. So glad I updated. NOT.

    Go to iTunea>Preferences>Devices and see if there is a backupright at the time you did the update. Then try restoring from that backup. If the apps are in your iTunes library, any app data will be restored to the iPod.
    When restoring from an iOS 4 (or later) backup, if the device had a passcode set, iTunes will ask if you want to set a passcode (and remind you that you had protected your device with a passcode). iTunes will not ask you to set a passcode when restoring from iOS 3.x and prior backups.
    Therefore, remembe the passcode that you enter this time.
    It appears that if you restore from a backup, that backup is not subseqyently overwritten by the next backup.

  • After much consideration, today I decided to join Adobe Photoshop CC only to discover it is not available to me as my laptop has Windows Vista.  What are my options other than having to buy a new computer or an old version like Ps5 or 6?

    After much consideration, today I decided to join Adobe Photoshop CC only to discover it is not available to me as my laptop has Windows Vista.  What are my options other than having to buy a new computer or an old version like Ps5 or 6?

    1-Do some more reading about a Windows "upgrade version" which, according to my experience, does NOT require you to format your drive... it upgrades over what you have, without disturbing installed programs... at least that is what happened the ONE time I installed an upgrade version, so I can't give a 100% assurance it will work that way with your computer... search link for all things Microsoft http://search.microsoft.com/search.aspx?mkt=en-US&setlang=en-US
    2-Depending on the hardware you have, you may not be able to run CC programs well, if at all
    3-CS6 is 3+ years old and is the ONLY non-CC version still being sold... unless you can find a "legal" CS5 somewhere

  • Hi. Whenever I go through one of the menus in firefox, the links remain highlighted after my mouse passes over them. Is there a bug fix for this or is there something wrong with my computer? I am running windows 7 if that helps.

    Hi. Whenever I go through one of the menus in firefox, the links remain highlighted after my mouse passes over them. Is there a bug fix for this or is there something wrong with my computer? I am running windows 7 if that helps. This problem started ever since I upgraded to version 5.

    I have downloaded and used the iPod Reset Utility, alot that did. My current state is iTunes on my XP Home with SP3 sees the iPod. When I drag a song to the iPod, the Sync message appears for about 5 minutes, then the Apple symbol appears. But no song has been transferred to the iPod.
    I tried to tap into the XP iTunes database from my iBook, but although it acted like it would add the XP library to the iBook library, it did not. I've got 19 Gs of songs on the XP. If I have to load each song from its original CD to get it on my iBook I'm going to start looking for some other app or device so that I can listen to my music.
    It is a shame, in the old days, Apple techs use to look at what was going on, now it appears they don't, so they never know they have problems until Apple's profits fall.

  • How do i get the download window to remain open after closing firefox browser window

    i sometimes download a bunch of files all at ones then have to go back to review them. but i don't need the browser open to do this just the download window. in older versions the download window would remain open after i closed the browser but i don't see a way to do that anymore?

    You can set the pref browser.download.manager.quitBehavior to 2 on the about:config page.
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.download.manager.quitBehavior
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />

  • In CS6, why the file size remains same after croping? And how do I reduce the size after each cropin

    In CS6, why the file size remains same after croping? And how do I reduce the size after each croping? Thx

    Select the Crop Tool and check the box [  ] Delete Cropped Pixels and you should see a reduction in file size.  With the box unchecked, the data is still maintained in the document, you just can't see it.

  • Employee record remains locked after BAPI_EMPLOYEE_DEQUEUE

    I use WebServices gererated by the wizard in SE37 to change Employee Data.
    I call functions (through the webservice) in the following sequence:
    BAPI_EMPLOYEE_ENQUEUE
    BAPI_PERSDATA_CHANGE
    BAPI_EMPLOYEE_DEQUEUE
    The ENQUEUE and CHANGE operations work fine, but the record remains locked after that.
    (as seen by SM12), it adds one more entry, and the employee remains locked. So question now is - how to successfully Dequeue it now ?
    Here is a copy of entries as seen in SM12 after Enqueue, Change, and Dequeue:
    800 MZZZZZB 13:26:31 E PLOGI 80001CP00010358 0 1
    800 MZZZZZB 13:26:31 E PREL 80000001273############################## 1 1
    800 MZZZZZB 13:27:07 E BUT000 8000000002083 0 1
    Important: The entries disappear after a while, so there is a delay in DEQUEUE to take effect.
    Is there any configuration/customization to make DEQUEUE happen immediately?
    Thanks a lot...

    Solved.

  • Text box tool remains "on" after use

    Adobe Reader 11.0.09 on Mac OSX 10.6.8 (antique)
    QUESTION: How to resolve failure of text-box tool to inactivate after use.  Instead, creates numerous undesired text boxes.
    I am using Adobe Reader 11.0.09 on a Mac with OS 10.6.8 (ancient).  Under the Comment tab, the second set of tools has eleven "Drawing Markups." Typically, when a user has completed the use of one of the markup tools, the tool is no longer highlighted.  In the recent past, the "Text Box" tool remains highlighted after creating a text box with keyed in text.  The next click anywhere on the document creates ANOTHER undesired text box.  Sometimes, when clicking within an existing text box to supplement/edit the text, two or more NEW text boxes are created within the original (i.e., because of a click at the location of desired text editing). Simply as a test, I examined the behavior of each of the eleven markup tools, and found that all but the pencil tool "inactivate" (un-highlight) after the drawing (e.g. a circle/oval or square/rectangle or arrow) is complete.  QUESTION:  Has anyone else observed that one or more "Drawing Markup" icons remain in the "active" status AFTER the mark-up drawing has been completed? If YES, did you find a fix for the annoying problem?
