furthermore... Androd.mk has dhcp.conf commented out, And android.conf has to be changed cause it only contains wifi interface options, if you want it to set ethernet you need to add interface for eth0.

(dhcpcd user is not root for some reason) now dhcpcd sets ethernet ip and dns properly, but download is still not working...
