dhcpcd awge0 also does nothing. I have installed arch too plenty of times and in it, merely enabling dhcpcd service helps connect to network.
I restarted dhcpcd. Looks like dns issue to me.

I get this prompt too.dhcpcd[191]: awge0: failed to request information
ntpd[405]: error resolving pool 2.netbsd.pool.ntp.org: Temporary failure in name resolution (2)
ifconfig awge0 shows normal ip and stuff.

Can the dtb of lime2 be an issue. I have seen there are pin delays of 3 units. Can that cause this?
