Can't connect to wifi during Arch Linux install

I'm trying to install Arch Linux from scratch following the official installation guide. Although an Ethernet connection is recommended, my computer doesn't have an Ethernet port, so I must use wifi. I successfully connected to wifi using the wifi-menu command, but when I try to ping any site this happens:

ping google.com
ping: google.com: Name or service not known

Any help is appreciated.

It turned out to be a problem with systemd-networkd not working right with wifi-menu. I solved it using the previous Arch ISO instead of the newest one (when it was still using dhcpcd instead of systemd-networkd) and it worked fine.
