You're just starting with Arch Linux and trying it out after setting up everything yourself. Everything seems to be working fine so far, but you're having trouble with networking. It looks like the ping isn't reaching your router even though you're connected via Ethernet. This could be due to a few things—like a misconfigured network interface, incorrect DNS settings, or a firewall blocking traffic. Since you're new, double-check that your network adapter is enabled and properly configured. If you need help setting up the correct IP address and DNS, just let me know!

Run the ifconfig command to check the network interface status.

The system indicates the ifconfig utility isn't available.

Both ip and ipconfig returned no results, but i detected a response from ip link. It shows details about the loopback interface with specific settings.

Yes, it's a laptop with a wireless network interface.

It's a desktop linked to your network through Ethernet. After installing Arch from a USB drive, it worked on startup. But once you rebooted Arch from the boot drive, the network connection stopped.

Consider checking the specifications of your NIC through a quick online search for "your NIC Arch Linux." That approach works well since Linux demands strong search abilities.

With deeper knowledge of Arch networking, I would have offered more assistance. Apologies if it seemed like that.
