No internet connection

[Gentoo]
I installed the base system, reboot, and now i'm trying to install the X system but can't emerge because i don't have an internet connection.
I emerged (while installing, i did it with Ubuntu live cd, that's why i had internet connection) ipw2200-firmware (i have an Intel Pro/Wireless 2200) and did what says here: http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Iwlwifi (just a few things, since i have a newer kernel).

[ping -c 3 www.gentoo.org returns:
ping: unknown host www.gentoo.org]

I'm running /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start and i get:

Code:

Starting eth0

.......... ok

* No DHCP client installed [ !! ]

I don't have ethernet connection either.

If you don't have a DHCP client installed, then set the interface up with a static IP temporarily. Then see if networking works, and if it does, install a DHCP client.

Ok, i used static networking (config_eth0... 192.168 netmask 255.... /etc/conf.d/net and comment out dhcp) and emerged dhcpcd.
My /etc/conf.d/net looks like:
config_eth0=( "dhcp" )

And i ran /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start
Everything is ok, till it says:

Quote:

dhcp
Running dhcpcd...
eth0: dhcpcd 4.0.15 starting
eth0: waiting for carrier
eth0: timed out [!!]

and is not connected.

Well, i have the same problem once again after emerge -av net-misc/networkmanager (http://www.gentoo-wiki.info/HOWTO_NetworkManager), this didn't work and messed up the connection.
(I already have X and gnome-light).
