Okay so I just finished struggling through my archlinux install. I have arch Linux with hyprland now.

But I cannot figure out how to download anything.

At minimum i need a browser, and git. But I cannot figure out web downloads in kitty.

Edit: nmtui to connect to WiFi, and then a reboot solved it.

    Thank you!

    So far I’ve determined I’m definitely not connected to internet.

    Unfortunately i cannot seem to connect.

    I’ve tried iwctl, and also nmtui.

    I dont know if I’m describing this right but both connect without error for a bit. But the second I go to use the WiFi it disconnects.

    Edit: rebooting after connecting seems to have solved it.

      Well, this is strange…

      You said you’re using both iwctl and nmtui, and maybe that’s the issue, cause you’re configuring 2 distinct apps to handle your connection and I think they can conflict with each other

      Choose 1 and disable the other

      For example, let’s suppose you wanna keep iwd, so enable it with

      sudo systemctl enable --now iwd.service

      And disable NetworkManager

      sudo systemctl disable NetworkManager.service

      Reboot your system

      However I suggest you to take a look at https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Network_configuration
