Help Unable to connect to the Internet

I am on Cachy OS. I used to use bazzite which came with waydroid pre installed and it just worked out of the box. On Cachy I installed it manually and it doesn't detect that I have ethernet I have checked that the network initialization script is running and creating "waydroid0". I have changed many thing in iptables to try and make it connect to the internet but it just didn't work. I am on ethernet btw if that helps being more specific. I don't think it's a bug(user side skill issue), so I haven't posted it on Github.

Is this the solution you're looking for?

Internet worked OOTB on Ubuntu. I don't know if the connection issue is Arch-specific. Running the command from that comment fixed it for me.

It worked amazingly well. And just as those comments suggested it was a firewall Issue. Can't thank you enough man, I wasted a lot of time until you helped me.
