Hi Marcel, Hi Robin,

thanks for your answers.

In Arch it's all about IPv6 it seems, so I did not want to disable
it. Instead I deleted the old resolve.conf (it was replaced
automatically by systemd). I replaced one (probably wrong) reference to
IPv4 with IPv6 in my config, and started and enabled the network service
again.

Now pinging works for both protocols, and my internet connection went
from incredibly slow to more or less acceptable.
