[Solved]Can`t create internet connection

Question

I`ve installed arch linux on my lenovo y550, but, because I was too sleepy to think yesterday so I didn`t configure the /etc/rc.conf and /etc/resolv.conf file (I installed from CD). All in all i`ve got neither wired nor wireless connection to the internet (everything works fine on windows 7, the same laptop). I think the problem is there are no proper drivers. After typing
/sbin/ifconfig
I only get the lo, no eth0. I`ve configured the web connection on my PC 2 years ago, the same router and web provider, but I didn`t have any problems then, so I guess it must laptop issue.
#lspci | grep -i net
06:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation WiFI Link 1000 Series
07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetLink BCM57780 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe (rev 01)
I tried the modprobe pcnet32 and modprobe tg3 and modprobe broadcom. In theory, 2.6.33 kernel should support the driver tg3 for BCM57780 (?? Maybe the information I`ve found is wrong??)
still no result. (I didn`t modify the /etc/rc.local with those modprobes yet).
Any Idea what should I do to get the web access?
I`ve found this post:http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=774219
and I`m curious how to install the iwlwifi-1000-ucode without internet connection to get my wireless going.
Any help with either connection?
SOLVED:
thx karol for solution. add this in your /etc/rc,local
modprobe -r tg3
modprobe broadcom
modprobe tg3
and add dbus in daemons. Also, while installing archlinux, you can find iwlwifi 1000 series in additional packages on cd (necessary for wireless connection)

Answer 1

the error i`ve been talking about:
::starting network
eth0:unknown interface: No such device
[FAIL]
::Mounting Network Filesystems [DONE]
there are drivers ofr linux on the producent webpage, http://www.broadcom.com/support/etherne … nk_k57.php
But I`ve got no idea how to access my pendrive from console. I can copy it to the HDD using PartedMagic liveCD, so I`m most likely going to try this. What`s funny, even though eth0 doesn`t work on parted magic using DHCP, wireless network works perfectly fine :]
